# Workflow history and job states > Read workflow-run progress and understand the statuses shown in history. Canonical URL: https://www.copyhero.app/help/workflows/workflow-history-and-job-states Use **Workflow History** to find a run, open it, and inspect product-level work. ## Find a run [#find-a-run] 1. Open **Workflows** and choose **Workflow History**. 2. Use **Search workflow, store, or product...** or filters to narrow the list. 3. Select a run to open its detail. 4. Select a product to inspect its jobs, activity, and available result details. ## Read status [#read-status] * **Pending**: the job is queued and has not started. * **Running**: the job is being processed. * **Finished**: the job completed. * **Error**: the job failed and needs attention before a retry. * **Cancelled**: the job was stopped and is terminal. The run summary can show **Running**, **Cancelled**, an error state, or finished status depending on its job counts. A run can contain completed work even when another job has an error. ## Expected result [#expected-result] You can identify the product and exact job that needs attention without recreating completed jobs. ## Errors and limits [#errors-and-limits] History reflects the current run; editing a task or workflow does not rewrite it. The visible job labels can include internal execution steps such as loading, importing, or publishing; those are status details, not additional task types you can create. ## Related links [#related-links] * [Retry failed jobs](/help/troubleshooting/retry-failed-jobs) * [Workflow failures](/help/troubleshooting/workflow-failures) * [Start a workflow](/help/workflows/start-workflow)
