# Working with Remote Actions Effortlessly keep track of the success of remote actions across your entire organization through advanced Remote Action dashboards. ## Accessing Remote Actions Select the Remote Actions module from the main menu. Next, based on your specific goal, proceed with one of the following steps: * Select **Remote actions overview** from the navigation panel to view statistics relevant to the performance of your remote actions. * Select **Manage remote actions** to create, edit or manage remote actions. Refer to the [Manage Remote Actions](/platform/user-guide/remote-actions/getting-started-with-remote-actions/managing-remote-actions.md) documentation for more information. * Select an existing remote action from the list in the navigation panel to view its details. * Click on the **New** button at the top of the navigation panel to directly create a new remote action. Refer to the [Manage Remote Actions](/platform/user-guide/remote-actions/getting-started-with-remote-actions/managing-remote-actions.md) documentation for more information about creating remote actions.

## Using the Remote actions overview page

An area chart visually illustrates the dynamic changes in the number of executions. The associated **Devices** table shows the total number of devices targeted by at least one remote action and offers a breakdown by status: * **Success**\ Executions that were completed successfully. * **Cancelled**\ Executions that were canceled due to the deletion of a remote action. * **Old collector**\ Executions that were not performed due to an older version of Collector. * **No script**\ Executions that were not performed due to the missing script for the device platform, `.ps` for Windows and `.bash` for macOS. * **Expired**\ Executions that expired due to the targeted device continuing to be offline while a new execution request was received. * **Failed**\ Executions that failed. * **Waiting on device**\ Executions that are waiting for the device to come online. The execution charts table displays the total execution count of all remote actions and a breakdown by **Platform**, **Purpose** and **Trigger**. You can filter the execution details of a remote action by clicking on the bars. Filters appear in the filtering bar at the top of the page. The **remote actions** table organizes remote actions by **Name**, **Device count**, **Successful executions**, and **Failed executions**. Click on the column title to sort the content. Click on a remote action in the table to open the **Remote Actions** details page. Previously selected filters automatically apply. ### Remote Action details page The details page shows execution details for a specific remote action. To access the execution details page. * Select **Manage remote actions.** * Hover over a remote action to reveal the action menu on the left side of the table. * Click the **Details** to view the execution details page. * Alternatively, select an existing remote action from the list in the navigation panel to view its details.

The **Remote action executions** gauge and timeline show executions that are a **Success** and those that have **Failed**. Click on the gauge labels to apply filters to the whole page. The **Executions** bar charts show a breakdown by **Platform**, **Purpose** and **Trigger**. Hover over the total number of executions and click on the action menu to drill down to: * Execution summary statistics without device details. * Execution details with device information and outputs. The **Devices** table shows a breakdown by execution status. Hover over the total number of devices and click on the action menu to drill down to: * The last successful execution per device for the remote action. * Execution details with device information and outputs. {% hint style="info" %} The execution details and last successful execution drill-down are only available for Infinity remote actions that have not been deleted from the dashboard. {% endhint %} ### **Using the timeframe picker** Use the timeframe picker in the top-right corner of the page to select a preset timeframe or a custom time period. The system applies the chosen timeframe to all widgets on the page. If you do not specify a timeframe, the default is **Last 7 days**. Refer to the in-product documentation in the right-side menu for more information. *** RELATED TOPICS * [Setting up and managing Remote Actions](/platform/user-guide/remote-actions/getting-started-with-remote-actions.md) * [Managing Remote Actions](/platform/user-guide/remote-actions/getting-started-with-remote-actions/managing-remote-actions.md) --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
