Best Interface to monitor automations?

Hello all,

 

I am new to airtable and here is my problem: My database has few automations that run weekly (separate times and days). I would like something like a calendar, where I can monitor at any point if any of the automations ran and if it produced a changed output (its not always expected to). I have tried using the timeline and calendar interfaces, but those are based on fields and not automations. Have I missed something, any advice on how I can visualise what I am looking to do?

Thank you

For this I ended up creating a new table called ‘Automation Logs’, and then making all my automations create a record in that table with the appropriate data, and update it accordingly if needed.  Works pretty well for me!

I ended up writing a script for this so that I could just drop it into an automation instead of having to manually set up the ‘Create Record’ action everytime too
