Workflow execution details page

The details page shows execution details for a specific workflow.

Click the Edit workflow button in the top-right corner of the page to enter editing mode.
Use the timeframe picker to change the time period on the workflow executions page.

The workflow executions table is organized by Execution ID, Status, Trigger method, Request time and Execution Duration.
