  • The left side of the page shows the activity directory, which consists of Ungrouped and other custom groups. By default, all activities in all groups are displayed.

  • The top of the page shows the total number of activities and the count for each status.

    Click a status to filter the activity list to that status.

    The status is divided into:

    • In progress: After an activity is published, it starts immediately if no start time is set or the start time has been reached. A stopped activity that is manually restarted also changes to In progress. For periodic activities, the interval between cycles is also considered In progress.

    • Not Started: After the activity is published, if the configured start time has not been reached, the activity remains in the Not Started status.

    • Stopped: The activity has been manually stopped.

    • Finished: The activity has completed or reached the preset stop time. Users already in the flow will finish their execution, but no new users will enter the flow.

      This includes normal and abnormal termination:

      • Normal End: All components executed successfully. The activity is displayed as Completed in the activity list.

      • Abnormal end: If a component fails to execute in either a one-time or recurring activity, the activity is displayed as Abnormally Ended in the activity list.

    • Draft: The activity has not been published.

  • The bottom of the page lists all activities with their basic information.

    You can search by activity name and press Enter. You can also filter by associated sub-activities. If a status filter is active at the top of the list, the search and sub-activity filters apply only to activities in that status.

    Click Show Columns in the upper-right corner to customize which columns are displayed, as shown below. image

Edit Activity

For any campaign, click Edit to open the canvas and modify the campaign configuration. The configuration method is the same as creating a new campaign. For more information, see Create an automated campaign.

Note

For an activity in the In-progress, Stopped, Ended, or Abnormally Ended state, saving or publishing after editing generates a new version. For an activity in the Draft or Not Started state, edits are saved to the current version.

Version management

For any activity, click Details to open the canvas page. The current configuration version is displayed at the top. Click the version number to view all historical versions in a drop-down list.

412

Click Manage Versions to open the version management panel on the right side of the page, as shown below. You can view, copy, stop, and start a specific version.

54

Copy Activity

For any activity, click Copy to open the canvas with a duplicate. The new activity is named "Original Activity Name-Copy" and retains the original configuration. Modify the campaign as needed. For more information, see Create an automated campaign.

Note

If you copy a template-based activity, the copy is detached from the template and can be edited like a normal activity.

Stop /restart activity

Stop

For an activity in the In progress or Not started state, click Stop to stop it. The status changes to Stopped.

You can select multiple activities from the list and click Batch Stop below the list.

Restarting

For a stopped activity, click Start. If the activity is still within the configured time range and the execution count has not been reached, the activity restarts and the status changes to In progress.

Note
  • Under the current cloud resource configuration, a maximum of 100 activities can be in progress simultaneously in the same workspace. If this limit is reached, starting a new activity fails. You must wait for an ongoing activity to end or manually stop one before starting a new activity.

  • After restarting, the activity does not resume the interrupted flow. Instead, it starts from the first component and generates a new execution record.

View activity execution

View the execution record list

A new execution record is generated each time an activity starts.

For an activity in the In-progress, Stopped, Ended, or Abnormally Ended state, or one that has been executed and then saved as a draft, click Execution Records. The Execution Records panel appears on the right side with all execution records.

2247

Note

Multiple execution records may exist in the following situations:

  • Periodic activities.

  • Stop the activity before it starts.

  • An activity that has been executed, then edited and republished, runs with the new configuration.

You can filter execution records by status:

  • In progress: The activity is currently executing.

  • Completed: The activity completed without any component failures.

  • Abnormal End: At least one component in the activity failed to execute.

  • Stopped: The activity is manually stopped.

You can perform the following operations on execution records:

  • View: Click View to open the canvas and view the activity configuration and execution details. For more information, see View execution details.

  • Stop: Click Stop in the Actions column to stop the activity. The status changes to Stopped.

    For periodic activities, stopping one execution does not affect the execution of the next cycle.

  • Re-execute: If an activity that uses a specified target group fails to obtain crowd data, the activity ends abnormally. You can click Re-run to retry. If no round is currently in progress, the re-execution starts immediately; otherwise, it starts after the current round ends. Re-execution is not limited by the activity start and end time and does not count against the recurrence limit.
