Auto-close runs

Runs that stay open too long can clutter your dashboard and make it hard to see what's actually in progress. Auto-close lets you set a time limit on any workflow and when a run exceeds it, Manifestly closes the run automatically.

How it works

1. Open Workflow Settings and set an Auto-Close duration (e.g., 7 days, 24 hours).
2. Every run created from that workflow gets an auto-close date based on when it was started.
3. When the time is up, the run is closed automatically in the background.

Details

• Auto-closed runs are marked in the activity log so you can see they weren't closed by a person.
• If a run is reopened, the auto-close date is recalculated.
• The run header displays a badge showing when the run will auto-close.
• Auto-close duration is visible in the workflow popover on the workflows list.
• Available via the API — auto_close_at and auto_closed_at are included in run responses, and open_duration in workflow responses.
