The "Running Log" tab provides an overview of the feed generation. Here the system logs the following data:
- Start of generation: the start time of the feed generation.
- End of generation: the time when the feed generation was completed.
- Generation Type: Type of generation
- PreView (Preview of the run):
- This mode is based on using the static data generated during previous runs and stored in the current run.
- Cron (Auto-run):
- A "cron" is a scheduling service, which is an automated approach that allows commands or scripts to be run on a scheduled basis at specified times or intervals, whether or not the data generated during previous runs is used.
- Reason: For example, it is useful if the dataset or price data changes every 5 minutes. In this case, the first data is old because it was generated during the previous run, while the current run uses the current, updated data.
- PreView (Preview of the run):
- File size: the file size of the feed you are creating.
- Results: the result of the generation.
- Status: The status of the generation, which may be:
- Successful: successful generation.
- FAILED: unsuccessful generation.
- This log helps you to keep track of the feed generation process and identify possible errors.
