The Background Processes page provides visibility into system processes that run in the background as part of data ingestion, configuration changes, and administrative actions. It allows you to track running, completed, and terminated processes for the current date, regardless of which user initiated them.
Use this page to monitor system activity, verify successful execution, and investigate issues when processes do not complete as expected.

From the Background Processes page, you can:
-
View processes started by you or other users
-
Track process status and execution details
