[One Workflow] Execute workflow from historical by semd · Pull Request #253396 · elastic/kibana

semd · 2026-02-17T10:11:23Z

Summary

Adds a "Historical" trigger tab to the Test/Run Workflow modal, allowing users to re-run a workflow using input data from a previous execution.
Also introduces a "Run again" button in the execution detail panel, and cleans up trigger-related types, translations, and icons.

Changes

Historical trigger tab (new feature)

New WorkflowExecuteHistoricalForm component: lets the user pick a past execution from a combo box, fetches its context, and populates a JSON editor with the original input data.
New useWorkflowExecution hook for fetching a single execution by ID.
The modal now renders four trigger cards (Alert, Document, Manual, Historical) driven by a shared ENABLED_TRIGGER_TABS constant and a WorkflowTriggerTab type.
All four trigger forms share the same executionInput/executionInputErrors state — no special-cased branches for historical.

"Run again" button

Added a replay button (EuiButtonIcon with refresh icon) to WorkflowExecutionPanel, next to the existing "Done" button.
Clicking it stores the execution ID in Redux (replayExecutionId) and opens the test modal with the Historical tab pre-selected.
New Redux state (replayExecutionId), selector (selectReplayExecutionId), and action (setReplayExecutionId) in the workflow detail slice.

Trigger types & translations cleanup

Moved WorkflowTriggerTab from telemetry types into a dedicated features/run_workflow/ui/types.ts, derived from ENABLED_TRIGGER_TABS constant.
Removed old MANUAL_TRIGGERS_DESCRIPTIONS from common/translations.ts; replaced with feature-scoped TRIGGER_TABS_LABELS and TRIGGER_TABS_DESCRIPTIONS.
Renamed "Index" trigger label to "Document" for clarity.
Updated telemetry schema description to include 'historical'.

Icon & trigger type improvements

Extracted getTriggerTypeIconType() from getStepIconType() so trigger icons are resolved separately from step icons.
Added 'document' trigger type to workflow_pseudo_step_context.ts (distinguishes alert vs document events).
Added aria-hidden attributes to decorative icons.

Minor UI tweaks

Wrapped AlertsSearchBar in a transparent EuiPanel for consistent spacing.
Adjusted triggers forms gutterSize and padding for alignment.

Nice work @semd!

A few things I noticed locally:

I expect the replay button to be visible not only then I play an execution from editor, but also if I just go to the detail view from executions list:

Screen.Recording.2026-02-20.at.15.21.40.mov

I think it would be useful to user to see icon or text of execution status in the dropdown list, e.g. if I want to re-run only failed executions. cc @r4zr32d3k1l

Hey @Kiryous
Thanks for the review and the suggestions 🙏

I expect the replay button to be visible not only then I play an execution from editor, but also if I just go to the detail view from executions list:

Yes, that is planned.
However, I don't have any design for this screen yet. We could use the same small green icon-button, but it would be a bit weird in this flyout, since we don't have the Done button next to it; we have the "Back to executions" link at the top. Maybe we could render the Done button in this screen as well, for consistency, but I am not sure.
Also, the Executions flyout is going to be moved to its own page soon. So, I decided to put that on hold to not block this initial PR. We can discuss it with @r4zr32d3k1l separately and do it in a follow-up PR. Is that okay?
(Users can still find production executions in the historical execution selector in the modal.)

I think it would be useful to user to see icon or text of execution status in the dropdown list, e.g. if I want to re-run only failed executions. cc @r4zr32d3k1l

That would be cool! I think users would also benefit from a status filter as well, and a time range filter would be even more important, imo. None of these was in the requirements, though.
We could probably do that as a follow-up as well; they are extensions to this implementation. Would you be okay with that? I don't want this PR to grow too much or get stuck because of that.

Hey, nice catch. I completely missed that case and updated the mocks accordingly.

Yes, I see, Pavel just added this variant, with just a wider Replay button, should be a little change, maybe we can squeeze it into this PR?
