Using the Archive Browser

Once your Automic Automation data is archived and indexed, you have instant access to historical data without requiring a live connection to the AE database. This section of the documentation is your comprehensive guide to extracting actionable insights from these offline records.

This section is designed primarily for operators, support engineers, and administrators who need to browse and search archived executions, read reports, and investigate task failures.

Here is what you will learn to do in this section:

Navigate the Interface

Familiarize yourself with the layout, global controls, and the two main workspaces, see Navigating the Archive Browser Interface.
Work with Executions

Sort records, customize your data grid, and use the Hierarchy view to analyze complex workflows, see Working with Executions.
Find Specific Data

Use robust search capabilities and the Filter panel to pinpoint the exact historical run you need among millions of archived records, see Finding Executions.
Analyze Outputs and Audit Trails

Drill down into specific runs to read raw report files and review any user-added comments left by operators, see Viewing Execution Reports and Viewing Execution Comments.
Investigate System Messages:

Trace system-wide warnings, Agent disconnects, or past login failures using the archived system messages, see Investigating System Messages.
