View the results of an action in Automator on Mac
You can view the details of a single action in the Results area of the action. This allows you to see what is happening when you run a workflow, and helps in troubleshooting any problems that may occur. Automator also includes a View Results action that displays the results of the previous action.
In the Automator app on your Mac, do any of the following:
View results for a single action: Click Results in the bottom-left corner of the action, then click Run.
View results for the previous action: Drag the View Results action from the Utilities category to the workflow, placing it after the action you wish to check, then click Run.
