Execute from Workflow List Table
On the workflows list view, each workflow row includes an Actions menu (· · ·). You can execute a workflow directly from there:
- Click the three‑dots (⋮) for a workflow
- Select Execute from the menu
- The workflow runs immediately in the context of your browser (if applicable)
This is a convenient shortcut to run workflows you’ve built without navigating into the editor.
Key Notes and Behavior
Section titled “Key Notes and Behavior”- Executing from the table is equivalent to a manual run — it triggers the workflow with its current configuration.
- The workflow must be suitable to run standalone (i.e. it should include any required trigger node or start condition).
- After execution, you can inspect results (in execution history or logs) just like with runs initiated from within the editor.
- Use this method for quick testing or re‑running a workflow without going deeper into it.
If you’re unfamiliar with manual executions vs full or automatic (production) executions, see our Executions guide for more context.
When this is useful
Section titled “When this is useful”- You want to quickly test a workflow without opening the editor
- You want to re-run it after updates
- You want to trigger workflows when they are already saved and configured
But if you need to run workflows based on web events or triggers, use trigger nodes and activate workflows instead. See Triggers for more details.
