    This topic describes how to execute a workflow and view the execution result.

    Prerequisites

    A workflow is created. For more information, see Create a workflow.

    Procedure

    1. Log on to the old CloudFlow console.

    2. On the Flows page, click the name of the workflow that you want to execute and view the information about the workflow.

    3. On the Executions tab of the Details page of the workflow, click Start Execution.

    4. In the dialog box that appears, specify an execution name in the Execution Name (Optional) field. If you do not specify an execution name, Serverless Workflow automatically generates a name for the execution.

    6. Click Start Execution to start the execution.

      You are directed to the Execute page. You can view the execution result on the Execute page. desc-exec-1
