A run is one piece of work performed by an agent. It might import documents, process invoices, or generate a report.

​
Ways to start a run

Upload files, select existing Layest files, or use the source configured in Setup. Manual runs are ideal for first tests and one-off work.

​
Follow progress

Runs can be:
  • Queued — waiting to start
  • Processing — the agent is working
  • Review — a person needs to check the draft
  • Completed — the expected result was created
  • Failed — the run needs attention
  • Rejected — the draft was not approved
  • Cancelled — processing was stopped
You can leave the page while processing continues.

​
Review an import

1

Open the run

Go to the agent’s Runs tab and select the item marked Review.
2

Compare draft and source

Check every important record against the original file.
3

Correct the data

Edit fields, add or remove rows, and resolve validation errors.
4

Approve or reject

Approval saves records and releases configured outputs. Rejection keeps the draft available but imports nothing.
Compatible import runs for the same agent, destination, and schema can be reviewed together with Bulk review.

​
When something goes wrong

  • Cancel a running workflow to stop processing and pending destinations.
  • Start again to create a new run from the source.
  • Re-extract an import when the current draft needs a fresh pass.
  • Review the run detail for the status and user-relevant error.
  • Check Setup when a source, destination, or connection needs attention.
Cancellation cannot undo an external action that already completed. Review connected destinations and downstream systems when necessary.
