Hi,

I have an unattended flow that is failing - Unfortunately I can't see where it fails due to the flow history only showing the first few minutes of activity e.g. the Flow starts at 5am and fails around 8am, however the latest action in the log is 5.09am

Should I be able to see all three hours with of actions in the log via web browser? Or for long running flows should I be downloading via some other method to view offline?

This looks to be a browser issue. Both Chromium edge and google chrome seem to stop downloading actions after the 5.09am cutoff.

Internet Explorer looks like it downloads a whole load more going by the time it takes and scroll bar - Unfortunately though the browser freezes (I guess due to too many items), so still can't view the final set of actions.

Hello, @SPCloudguy.
From what you are saying I can guess that there must be quite a few entries in the execution logs during flow run.
Did the flow run correctly in debug mode? (through the designer)

Yes the flow carries out many actions for each item in a report of 6k suppliers, it takes about 3hrs to compete so safe to say there would be many thousands of entries in the execution logs.

Unfortunately the flow does run correctly in debug mode, the problem is intermittent so often runs ok in un-attended mode. The problem is bigger than just this one flow, I'm concerned how I'll troubleshoot other long running flows if I can only access the first few minutes of the execution logs.

To check whether its the environment at fault I've connected the robot to another environment but got the same results.
