Where to find them
Each file a trail picks up gets its own run, and so does a scheduled check that finds no new files. Every email about a run links to its page. You can also reach runs from three places.
| Where | What it shows |
|---|---|
| The trail's page | Recent runs, newest first: the last 10, test runs included with a Test run label. Click one to open it. |
| The canvas | Last run, Waiting for you and Runs this month, with Open the run history. Test runs are not counted. |
| The Trails list | How many runs are held for review across all your trails. Open a trail's row for its report. |
What each state means
A run's page and the trail's recent runs name the state in the same words.
| State | What it means |
|---|---|
| Running | The steps are working through the file. |
| Held | The push is waiting for someone to approve or discard it. |
| Stopped | The run could not finish and is waiting for a fix. |
| Sending | An approved push is being sent. |
| Starting again | The run has been changed or restarted and is queued to run again. |
| Finished | Nothing is left to do. A finished test run reads Finished too. |
| Failed | The run stopped and cannot be started again. |
| Discarded | The run was discarded, by someone or automatically. Nothing more happens to it. |
| Nothing to do | A scheduled run found no new files. |
| Not started | The workspace had used its jobs for the month. |
Held, Stopped and Failed are marked in amber.
What a run's page shows
The top of the page says what happened, when the run started, the folder and the CRM, and the trail version the run used. Steps your plan left out are listed under What your plan changed.
| Card | What is on it |
|---|---|
| How far it got | The chain as this run used it, including any change made to this run, with the stage it stopped or waited at marked. |
| Why it stopped, Why it is waiting, or for a test run, Why the push would have waited | The reasons, in order. A note from the Bridgeant review is quoted as Bridgeant wrote it. |
| The file | Rows that arrived, rows ready to send, values that look wrong, and rows with no email address. For companies, rows with no website or name. |
| What this push would do | Before the push: what it would create, update and skip, and what your CRM would refuse, worked out when it was held. |
| What reached your CRM | After the push: what it created and updated, and the rows that did not land. |
| Rows that did not go | Shown when some rows did not reach your CRM. Download the list gives you all of them as a CSV. |
What you can do from a run
A run that is still going, or one that has ended, has nothing to press. The exception is a finished run whose own change worked, which offers Put this fix on the trail.
| Button | On | Who |
|---|---|---|
| Approve and send | A held push, except a test run | Anyone in the workspace |
| Send it without a review | A held push whose first reason is that there is no usable review, except a test run | Anyone in the workspace |
| Discard this run | A held or stopped run | Anyone in the workspace |
| Change something about this run | A stopped run | Admins, unless the workspace allows everyone |
| Edit a step before the push | A stopped run where part of the push landed | Admins, unless the workspace allows everyone |
| Start this run again | A stopped run with a saved change that has not run yet, or one stopped because the review could not run | Admins, unless the workspace allows everyone |
| Send this one without a review | A run stopped because the review could not run | Admins, unless the workspace allows everyone |
| Put this fix on the trail | A run whose own change has been shown to work | Admins, unless the workspace allows everyone |
The setting is Who can change a stopped run's settings, under Team in Settings. If a push came back because your CRM moved, switch on "I have seen what changed. Send it anyway." before you click Approve and send.
How long runs are kept
Runs are not deleted, even when their trail is.
A held push waits until someone approves or discards it. A stopped run nobody fixes is closed as Failed after 14 days. A finished test run is discarded after 14 days.
The files follow your plan's retention. A file a run is still using, because the run is going, held or stopped, is kept until the run ends. Once a run's output file has gone, Rows that did not go no longer shows each row's email address or website.
| Plan | Files kept for |
|---|---|
| Free | 24 hours |
| Starter | 30 days |
| Pro | 30 days |
| Agency | 90 days |
The trail's report
On the Trails list, open a trail's row to see what it has done since it was last switched on. Test runs are not counted.
| Figure | What it counts |
|---|---|
| Runs | Every run since the trail was last switched on |
| Rows in | The rows that arrived, across every run |
| Created | Records the trail's pushes created in your CRM |
| Updated | Records the trail's pushes updated in your CRM |
| Jobs used | One for each stage that finished |
A push still waiting for approval is not counted in Created or Updated until it is sent.

Frequently asked questions
Why do the canvas and the trail's page show different numbers of runs?
Runs this month on the canvas counts real runs since your billing month began. The trail's page lists the 10 newest runs of any age, test runs included.
Does discarding a run undo a push?
No. Discarding stops a held or stopped run going any further. Rows a partial push already sent stay in your CRM.
Can I see runs older than the last 10?
Not from a list. The trail's page lists the 10 newest. An older run still has its own page, linked from the emails about it.
