Queues
Displays information about all the existing queues in the current folder on an aggregate basis, and allows you to check the overall health of the queues in your system. On this page, you can control the granularity of the displayed data, to have a more accurate overview of the metrics of your queues.
- Interval - enables you to control the granularity of the data, and display either the last hour or hour, last day (last 24 hours) hours), last week (last 7 days) or last month (last 30 days) of your queues activity.
-
Include Subfolders - enables you to select if the contents of all subfolders are included. Only available for modern folders.
Note: Filtering impacts all widgets, unless specified otherwise in the dedicated section.
Allows you to see an overview of the queue's health state so you can assess if there are any problems that would impact the entire system. Each color block represents a specific queue from your instance. Hovering over a block displays the name of the corresponding queue and its containing folder. Note that it is possible to have multiple queues with the same name if each is in a different folder. The total number of queues is displayed in parentheses after the widget name. As a queue's state changes, the chart gets updated and the block color changes accordingly.
The various scenarios are represented with colored blocks and tooltips as follows:
Color |
Tooltip |
---|---|
Grey |
No changes detected |
Green |
Processing with no issues |
Orange |
Queue items soon overdue |
Red |

Clicking a block displays the corresponding detailed view page. Click the arrow at the top-left of the page to return to the general view.
Filtering by Interval does not impact the red blocks in this widget.
Allows you to see the overall status of all queue items so as to assess if your system is overloaded, and more Robots are needed to process everything in time. Starting an item-processing job causes the Items in Progress section to update accordingly.
The unprocessed queue items are broken down into three categories:
- Newly Added Items - Items that were added in the selected interval regardless of their status.
- Remaining Items - Items remaining to be processed.
-
Items in Progress - Items which are in progress.
Filtering by Interval only impacts the Newly Added Items section in this widget.
Allows you to see precise figures on items that were processed. It enables you to assess whether your queue items are failing or not. Please note that for failed items that were retried, each retry status is taken into account.

Enables you to see the average handling time of an item, calculated on all items in the selected queue since it was created, and the estimated completion time for the rest of the items based on that average. The Estimated Completion value is influenced by the number of Robots which are currently processing items, as well as by items that have a Defer Date. When no more unprocessed items are left in the queue, the value is set to N/A.
Filtering by Interval does not impact this widget.
Note that the durations are displayed as rounded-up values. The exact duration in ISO8601 format is shown when you hover over the displayed value.
Allows you to see the a list of the errors encountered on the selected queue. The errors are displayed in reverse chronological order as they occur, meaning a new error is always displayed at the top of the feed. The number of errors displayed in parentheses after the widget name is expressed according to your position within the feed and to the total number of errors. Let's say there are 453 errors in your feed. The following behavior is encountered:
Position Within the Feed |
Displayed Value |
---|---|
Between 0 and 99 |
99+ |
Between 100 and 199 |
199+ |
Between 200 and 299 |
299+ |
Between 300 and 399 |
399+ |
Further than 400 |
The total number of errors in the feed, in this particular example 453. |
After reaching the end of the feed, the total number of errors is displayed regardless of your position.
You can dismiss an error after having acknowledged it, however please take into account that multiple users might check the feed simultaneously, so we recommend carefully using the Dismiss button. A dismissed error is still taken into account in the error counter. After an error was dismissed, the name of the user who performed the action is displayed adjacently in a tooltip. Note that you need Edit permissions on Monitoring to dismiss errors.
