# Activity

> Monitor running and completed background processes in your project

## Overview

The Activity panel gives you real-time visibility into background processes running in your project — such as contract extractions, statement processing, asset matching, and sync operations.

Access it by clicking the **Activity** icon (the pulse/activity icon) in the top-right corner of any project page.

## Notification Badge

When a background process completes and you haven't viewed it yet, a small dot appears on the Activity button. This lets you know there is new activity to review without interrupting your workflow.

<Note>
  The notification dot only appears for **completed** processes. It does not show while a process is actively running — during that time the Activity button is highlighted to indicate work is in progress.
</Note>

The dot clears automatically when you open and close the Activity panel — all completed entries are marked as seen at that point.

## Activity Panel

Click the Activity button to open the panel. It shows processes from the **last 30 days**, ordered from newest to oldest, including:

| Status        | Description                      |
| ------------- | -------------------------------- |
| **Running**   | Process is currently in progress |
| **Completed** | Process finished successfully    |
| **Failed**    | Process encountered an error     |

The panel updates in real time — you do not need to refresh the page to see the latest status.

## Grouping by Type

Within each time period (Today, Yesterday, etc.) activities are grouped by **type** — for example, "Match recordings", "Scan statement", "Export contracts". Each group shows:

* The activity type name
* A count badge with how many runs of that type fall in the period
* A **Running** label when at least one run in the group is still in progress
* A small dot when the group contains unseen completed runs

Groups expand automatically when they contain a running activity. Click a group header to collapse or expand it.

## Activity Details

Each activity row has a collapsible **Status** section. Click it to reveal additional context for that run, which may include:

| Detail                | Shown when                                                                                                   |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Linked file**       | The activity is tied to a specific contract or statement — click to open that file in a new tab              |
| **Error**             | The activity failed — the error message is shown                                                             |
| **Skipped**           | The activity was skipped — the reason is shown                                                               |
| **Message**           | The activity produced a single status message                                                                |
| **Key/value summary** | The activity reports counters or settings — e.g., recordings processed, suggestions found, contracts matched |
