Log an Action

Log the occurrence of any custom activity and its value during the running of a wizard. The action is logged upon reaching the point in the wizard where you have placed the LOG AN ACTION command.

  • For an attended automation, you can later access this information by generating the Runtime User Actions report from the Nintex Report Generator.

  • For an unattended automation, you can access the data through Nintex RPA Console Plus in the Run History for the relevant task/trigger.

  1. Enter the name to assign to the action to be logged.

  2. Enter the value to assign to the action to be logged (generally, the value of a variable).

Example: Reporting on wizard activity

Assume you run a wizard daily that deletes files from the c:\temp folder (using the Delete File(s) command). You can use the log an action command to log that the deletion occurred, along with the names of the files deleted.
