# Workflow Monitor

If you are a monitor for a workflow, you can see and take action on any items in that workflow as long as they are still active.

Typically this list will show tasks items similar to the My Tasks page, but items in other workflow states may also appear here (example: waiting for a timer to complete).

The workflow monitor section can be separated into the following areas:
