Task Events Log

The Task Events table supplies comprehensive information with reference to all executed tasks. This log is useful for gathering pertinent  information about task events that occurred, such as when a task ran, which trigger started the task, the total amount of time the task took to execute and whether it ran successfully or failed. Dates can be filtered by the current day, previous day, last week or month, before or after a particular date/time or a custom date range.
