The Issue Checker is an inbuilt function that helps to identify issues that will stop your workflow from running effectively.
Issues within a Workflow
If there are any issues within your workflow, these will be shown below the Publish Changes button, as pictured.
Issues will also be displayed on the main workflow editor in the top right-hand corner.
If you click on the red circle, it will detail what issues occur. This example is showing one issue in Step 2, that the recipient of the task (which in this case is the approver of the decision) is empty.
Finally, when a step has an issue, you'll see an indicator on a tab at the top of that step.
This setup helps you identify and address any problems before you publish your workflow.
Once the issues are fixed, the issue checker will disappear, and the option to Publish your changes will be available again.
It is important to Publish your workflow whenever you make changes to ensure these are reflected in the live running of the workflow.
