Automate Dashboard

The Automate Dashboard is your central workspace to build, manage, and monitor everything you automate within Contentstack. It brings together Agents, Automations, and Executions tracking into one powerful overview, helping you optimize workflows and scale confidently.

Whether you are creating manual workflows or intelligent Agents, the Dashboard provides a unified place to control and optimize your automation strategies.

The Automate Dashboard is designed to help you:

• Visualize your automation landscape: Quickly see how many Agents and Automations you have and how they are performing.
• Monitor success rates and execution times: Understand which workflows are running smoothly and where you might need adjustments.
• Track real-time activity: Stay updated on every action your Agents take, using the live feed.
• Scale your operations: Easily build new automations or Agents as your needs grow, without losing control or visibility.

By centralizing this information, Automate makes it easy for teams to move fast while staying aligned on automation goals.

Here are the key features of the Automate Dashboard to explore:

At the top of the dashboard, you get a quick glance at your automation health:

• Total count of Agents and Automations created in a project.
• Success Rate reflects the total count of successful execution for Agents and Automations. Suppose, there are a total of 100 executions in a day, out of which 60 are successful and 40 are in some other statuses such as Failed, Running, Paused, etc. So the success rate would be 60% for the day.

  Note: The data is recorded for 24 hours.

• Execution Summary (Today) to track the total number of executions in a day for both Agents and Automations.
• Average Execution Time is the time taken by each Automation and Agent (in a project) to run.

The Live Feed brings transparency into how your Agents are currently working. You can view:

• How many active Agents are running.
• View step-by-step breakdowns of tasks.
• Understand the AI reasoning behind the Agent’s decisions.

This visibility is especially useful for complex workflows where dynamic responses or multiple systems are involved.

From the Dashboard, you can quickly check all the active Automations and Agents.

• Agents: View all active Agents, along with their Abilities, Status, and Models directly from the Agent cards.
• Automations: View all active Automations, including the number of steps, creator name, etc., from the Automation cards.

You can monitor each Agent or Automation individually, track their usage, and refine them based on performance insights.

The Execution Log view gives you full transparency into every workflow run. You can filter executions, monitor success and failure rates, and troubleshoot based on detailed logs — helping you optimize and scale confidently.

Note: You can filter execution history for up to 90 days at a time.

1. Log in to your Contentstack account and click the Automate icon in the left navigation panel.
2. Select your project and then the automation.
3. Navigate to the Dashboard in the left navigation panel.
4. Use the Overview section to monitor the health of your workflows.
5. Track Agent activity in real time through the Live Feed.
6. Dive into the Execution Log section to review daily executions for both Agents and Automations.

• Start small: Build a few workflows first, then expand as your needs grow.
• Monitor regularly: Use metrics like Success Rate and Average Execution Time to fine-tune workflows.
• Use Agents for dynamic tasks: For workflows that require AI reasoning, start using Agents early.
• Centralize logic: Store custom scripts and reusable workflows in Automate to stay organized.
• Stay agile: Review the Execution Log frequently to adjust strategies based on real data.

The Automate Dashboard is more than a monitoring tool, it is the control center for your automation strategy. It empowers you to create smarter workflows, monitor them at scale, and continuously improve based on real-time insights. Whether you are building manual Automations or leveraging Agents, the Dashboard makes sure you always have full control over your automation journey.
