Create a project using Playbook data
Use Process Mining to analyze Playbook executions and identify bottlenecks in your workflows. Process Mining works alongside Playbooks configured in Workflow Studio. By analyzing execution logs generated during playbook runs, Process Mining enables post-execution visibility into how human agents are handling playbooks.
Before you begin
Role required: pd_author, pd_operator, sn_process_mining_analyst, sn_process_mining_power_user, or sn_process_mining_admin. You must have the playbook.write roles.
About this task
Playbooks are built and configured in Workflow Studio, where you define activities for human agents and set up decision logic based on customer scenarios. When agents execute these playbooks, the system generates execution logs that Process Mining can analyze.
Workflow studio
Note: Note the following:
- Only one playbook can be analyzed at a time.
- The Analyst workbench provides basic analysis and bottleneck identification only.
- Summary insights, improvement opportunities, and detailed phase information aren’t yet available.
Procedure
Navigate to Workspaces > Process Mining Workspace.
Select Create New Project from the projects page.
The Set objectives tab is displayed.
Provide details on the Set objectives tab.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Select type | Select `Project`. |
| Name | Provide an intuitive name for the project that you’re creating. |
| Short description | Provide a short description for the project you’re creating. |
| Source Type | Select `Playbook` from the list. |
| Playbook | Select a table with playbook data from the list. |
| Mark as restricted | Select the check box if you want to limit project access to the owner and the users they explicitly share it with. Administrators and power users don't have access to the mined data unless the project is shared with them. Once a project is marked as restricted, only the owner can clear this field. When you’re dealing with sensitive data and must restrict access, you can use this option. |
| Auto retire | This field is available only if you choose the type as Project. Select the Auto Retire check box if you want to retire the project automatically based on inactivity for a specified number of days (Default: 90 days). You can extend the retirement by moving it back to published or draft state before the versions get cleaned in another 90 Days (default). If you don’t change the retired status within the specified days, the mined versions are permanently deleted. However, the project definition isn’t deleted. You can opt out of auto retirement by clearing this check box. The default value of 90 days can be changed by the administrator in the System Properties. For more information see, Data cleanup properties. |
Select Create project.
The Scope your analysis tab is displayed. The filter conditions are preconfigured.
Note: There are no improvement opportunities for playbook projects. All conditions are preconfigured. You can’t edit any condition.
Select Review and Mine.
Playbook project in Analyst workbench
The Analyst workbench provides execution metrics for completed playbook runs, including duration, average time per execution, and activity occurrence counts. The Analyst workbench visualizes parallel activities and decision points within the workflow to help you understand how playbooks are being executed.
