How to View Workflow Trigger Statistics in GoHighLevel
If you use ClickUp to manage tasks and depend on GoHighLevel for automations, understanding workflow trigger statistics is essential for troubleshooting and optimization. This guide walks you through where to find trigger data in GoHighLevel and how to read it so you can quickly see whether your workflows are firing as expected.
Following these steps, you will be able to see how many times each trigger has fired, when it last fired, and which elements in your workflows are driving automation activity.
What Are Workflow Trigger Statistics in GoHighLevel?
Workflow trigger statistics in GoHighLevel show you how often a specific trigger has run inside a workflow. This helps you answer questions like:
- Is my workflow trigger firing at all?
- How many contacts are entering through this trigger?
- When was the last time this trigger successfully ran?
These statistics are available directly inside the workflow builder so you can review performance while editing or analyzing your automations.
Where to Find GoHighLevel Workflow Trigger Statistics
You can access trigger statistics from the same area where you manage all your automations. The information is available both at the workflow level and at the individual trigger level.
Step 1: Open the GoHighLevel Workflows Area
- Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
- From the left-side menu, click Automation.
- Select Workflows to open the list of existing workflows.
This brings you to the main workflows screen where you can view and manage all your automations.
Step 2: Select the Workflow You Want to Analyze
- In the workflows list, locate the workflow whose trigger statistics you want to check.
- Click the workflow name to open the workflow builder.
Inside the builder, you will see trigger information at the top, followed by the steps that make up your automation.
Viewing GoHighLevel Workflow-Level Trigger Information
At the top of the workflow builder, GoHighLevel displays a key workflow-level statistic that helps you understand overall performance.
Total Contacts in the Workflow
On the main workflow page, you will see a count showing how many unique contacts have entered the workflow. This is not per trigger; it is the cumulative number of contacts that have passed through the workflow.
This statistic helps you quickly assess whether the workflow is active and receiving traffic from your triggers.
Viewing Trigger-Specific Statistics in GoHighLevel
Most detailed information is available at the trigger level. Every trigger you configure inside a workflow has its own statistics so you can see exactly how it is performing.
Step 3: Open the Trigger Settings Panel
- Inside the workflow builder, locate the Trigger box at the top of the flow.
- Click the trigger to open the settings and configuration panel on the right side.
The right-hand panel shows the configuration for the selected trigger along with a statistics section specific to that trigger.
Step 4: Review GoHighLevel Trigger Statistics
In the trigger configuration panel, scroll until you see the statistics area. Here you will typically find:
- Times run: The total number of times this trigger has executed.
- Last run: The date and time when this trigger most recently fired.
These statistics are tied directly to the selected trigger, not to the entire workflow, giving you granular insight into that specific entry condition.
How to Interpret GoHighLevel Trigger Statistics
Once you know where to find the numbers, the next step is understanding what they tell you about your automations.
If the Trigger Has Never Run
If the statistics show that the trigger has not run:
- Verify that the trigger conditions are correctly set.
- Check that the workflow is Published and not in draft.
- Confirm that the expected events (form submissions, pipeline changes, tags, etc.) are actually happening in your account.
If the Trigger Has Run but Recently Stopped
If you see that the trigger has run in the past, but the Last run date is old:
- Confirm that contacts still meet the trigger conditions.
- Make sure you did not accidentally change the trigger filters or source.
- Check whether upstream processes (for example, form traffic or pipeline updates) have slowed down.
If the Trigger Runs Too Often
If the trigger statistics show a higher volume than expected:
- Review the trigger filters to ensure they are not too broad.
- Check for conditions that might allow the same contact to enter multiple times.
- Adjust settings to limit re-entry if required by your workflow logic.
Best Practices for Using GoHighLevel Trigger Stats
To get the most value from workflow trigger statistics, incorporate them into your regular automation reviews.
- Monitor after publishing: After you publish a new workflow, check the trigger statistics within the first few days to confirm that everything is running.
- Audit regularly: Periodically review triggers in your highest-impact workflows to catch configuration issues early.
- Use stats for optimization: If some triggers show very low or very high counts, revise your workflows, filters, or marketing campaigns accordingly.
