We're happy to announce a redesigned Automations page for Insights, featuring a new table view that replaces the previous card view, along with a new side panel for a more streamlined experience.

The Insights Automations tab displays all associated playbook runs, including the trigger, start time, and current status. Select a playbook to view detailed execution information, switch to a graphical view, and navigate through nested playbooks.

width="300" was removed here, so this image will now render at its native size while the others still pin width="800". Was that intentional? If not, worth adding a width back for consistency.


You will see three sections in the **Actions** menu:
* **Insight Automation**. Displays a list of all enabled insight automations configured to run manually.

Grammar: it'sits. This should be the possessive "its details" (not the contraction "it is").

Alt text copy-paste: alt="Automations on an insight" doesn't describe this screenshot. Suggest something like alt="Playbook execution details".


You can switch to the graphical view by clicking **Graph View** in the upper-right corner:

Two small things on this line:

  • Wording: "the front and back arrow" reads awkwardly — suggest "the forward and back arrows" (or "next and previous arrows").
  • Alt text copy-paste again: alt="Automations on an insight" should describe this image, e.g. alt="Navigating nested playbooks".


### View enrichments provided by automations

When automations run, they can provide enrichments to insights, entities, and signals.
1. Open an insight, entity, or signal with enrichments provided by an automation.
1. Click **Enrichments** at the top of the screen.
1. If threat indicators are set by the [enrichment](/docs/cse/integrations/enrichments-and-indicators), they are displayed. The following example shows a **Malicious** threat indicator.<br/><img src={useBaseUrl('img/cse/automations-malicious-threat-indicator.png')} alt="Threat indicator example" style={{border: '1px solid gray'}} width="800"/>

## View an automation's status

After [running an automation](#run-an-automation-automatically), you can go to the **Automations** tab for the insight or entity to view the automation's status.

<img src={useBaseUrl('img/cse/automations-execution-status.png')} alt="Automations execution status" style={{border: '1px solid gray'}} width="800"/>

For each automation you will find:
* The time and date when the automation was run.
* The name and description of the associated playbook.
* The playbook’s current status.
* A link to **View Playbook** in the Automation Service UI.

:::note
You may have to manually refresh this screen to see the most current status.

If you click **View Playbook**, the Automation Service UI will open to the playbook status page:

<img src={useBaseUrl('img/cse/automations-playbook-status.png')} alt="Playbook status" style={{border: '1px solid gray'}} width="800"/>

You can switch to the graphical view by clicking **Graph View** in the upper-right corner:

<img src={useBaseUrl('img/cse/automations-playbook-status-graph.png')} alt="Playbook status graph" style={{border: '1px solid gray'}} width="800"/>
1. Click the **Enrichments** tab.
1. If threat indicators are set by the [enrichment](/docs/cse/integrations/enrichments-and-indicators), they are displayed. The following example shows a **Suspicious** threat indicator.<br/><img src={useBaseUrl('img/cse/automations-suspicious-threat-indicator.png')} alt="Threat indicator example" style={{border: '1px solid gray'}} width="800"/>
