Solutions for workflow history and audit.

Hi all,

Having recently demonstrated some workflows within Data Governance Center to our IT users, the question of workflow history and audit come up.

They wanted to be able to find out how many times a particular workflow had run, and if it had been rejected (for example if a new definition of a Term had been rejected), who had rejected it and why.

Currently DGC does not allow for MI around workflows and does not show the history associated with them. I was wondering if anyone else had these questions and if you had identified a potential solution?

Many thanks

Tom

The history of workflows itself is not something you could check in the UI to my knowledge (You are able to see the current workflow instances that are active in the settings>workflows>instances tab). Every time a workflow performs an action against a certain asset, this activity is stored in the history tab of the asset.

Audit trail is available from the “activities” API endpoint, but I don’t think it’s possible to get it from the UI.
Best bet is to write a python (or else) script to extract this information.
