Immediate Window

Estimated reading: 1 minute

The Immediate Window allows you to evaluate expressions, inspect runtime variables, and execute supported commands while a workflow is paused during debugging. It provides access to the current execution context, enabling you to validate logic, troubleshoot issues, and inspect runtime values without modifying the workflow or restarting the debugging session.

How It Works

The Immediate Window is available only during an active debugging session when workflow execution is paused, such as at a breakpoint or while stepping through activities.

To use the Immediate Window:

1. Start debugging the workflow.
2. Pause execution at a breakpoint or use a step action.
3. Open the Immediate Window.
4. Enter an expression or supported command.
5. Press Enter to evaluate the expression and view the result.

Running a Workflow in Debug Mode

1. Right-click the activity where you want the workflow to pause and select Toggle Breakpoint.
2. Run the workflow. 
3. A confirmation dialog appears asking: Do you want to run the workflow in Debug Mode?
4. Click Yes to start debugging or No to cancel.
5. When the workflow reaches the breakpoint, execution is paused, allowing you to inspect and evaluate runtime data.
