Test/Execute a Circuit

Once you configured your circuit, you have three options:

• Save: Stores your current configuration without executing or publishing the circuit.

• Save and Execute: Saves and immediately runs the circuit without publishing. This is typically used for testing purposes.

• Publish: Saves and publishes the current configuration of the circuit. Every time changes are published, a new circuit version will be generated automatically.

      

Execute a Circuit

Clicking Save and Execute opens a pop-up window with a predefined JSON input.

• Provide a name for the execution in the Name field. This name will be used in Execution logs and is useful for tracking, troubleshooting, and auditing. IIf left blank, a name will be auto-generated.
• Modify the key-value pairs to suit your testing scenario.
• Click Run to initiate the execution.

 

Once execution begins, you can monitor the progress in real time.

• Each circuit can have multiple simultaneous executions.
  

• Each execution supports up to 1000 state transitions.

• The lifetime of a circuit execution is limited to 30 days.                                                              

Managing Executions

New Execution: To initiate a new execution, click the New Execution button at the top-right corner of the execution details page.

Run Again: Re-executes the circuit with a new input and the same configuration.

Retry: Re-attempts a failed execution using the same input, resuming from the failed state.

Stop Execution  : If an execution appears stuck or continues to run for a long time, a Stop Execution button will appear. Clicking it will immediately terminate the execution to prevent resource drain.

Retry is available only for failed executions.
