Orchestration Health in Swimlane Turbine provides visibility into the overall **operational health** of playbook executions and automation events. It helps administrators and orchestrators monitor reliability, investigate issues, and configure alerts to stay informed about failures.

The Operational Health view now includes three key areas:

- **Runs** – Monitor queued, active, successful, and failed playbook executions, view run history, analyze performance, and cancel running playbooks when necessary. Detailed trigger and input/output data is retained for **14 days**; see [Runs](docId\:mlauWQM5YCHuH4SUQ4mnG).
- **Events** – Track real-time event activity that triggers or skips playbooks.
- **Alerts** – Configure orchestration alerts and email notifications for failed playbook runs.

Each of these sections provides detailed insights to help maintain the stability and performance of your orchestration environment.

The Runs section provides a graphical and tabular view of playbook executions. You can monitor playbook runs in real time, including queued and active executions, filter runs by time, playbook name, trigger type, and status, and investigate workflow performance or failures. Active playbook runs can also be canceled directly from the Runs view when necessary.

[Events](docId\:DybTe0pWE5RBBA6HUqw2f)

The **Events** section displays real-time activity logs of orchestration events, including record updates, record creation, webhook requests, and scheduled cron jobs. You can drill into event details to see triggered or skipped playbooks and investigate anomalies.

[Alerts](docId\:vbWsUcjN5PUXTVLoS1MM0)

The **Alerts** section allows administrators to configure orchestration alerts and notifications for failed playbooks. Alerts can be delivered via email to users, groups, or custom recipients, ensuring quick response to operational issues.

By leveraging Runs, Events, and Alerts together, you gain a complete view of orchestration health, making it easier to optimize workflows, detect anomalies, and maintain reliable automation.
