Before you activate a rule, test it – no real actions are performed.
Who can do this: team members with permission to view automations (testing needs edit permission).
- In the rule list click … → Test run (or Test Rule at the bottom of the editor). Adjust the Sample Data (JSON) if needed and click Run Test. The result shows whether the Rule would trigger, how conditions were evaluated and which Actions Would execute.

- Click … → View logs to see executions of the last 30 days (or the last 100). Filter by status and date range.

- In the editor, click … (More actions) → History to see the version audit log of the rule.

Good to know
- Variables such as {{entity.name}} are shown as written in the test preview.
- A rule only writes logs when it is Active and its trigger fires.
- Currently the history can stay empty even after saving.
