# Executions

An execution is a single run of a workflow.

To browse all executions:

Select the **Executions**  in the left menu to view your executions history. n8n opens the **Workflow Executions** modal. You can then open and view individual executions.

To view executions for a single workflow:

In the workflow, select **Executions** in the top menu. You can preview all executions of that workflow.

## Retry failed workflows

If your workflow execution fails, you can retry the execution. To retry a failed workflow:

1. Open the **Executions** list.
2. For the workflow execution you want to retry, select **Refresh** <span class="inline-image">![Refresh icon](/_images/common-icons/refresh.png)</span>.
3. Select either of the following options to retry the execution:
    * **Retry with currently saved workflow**: Once you make changes to your workflow, you can select this option to execute the workflow with the previous execution data.
    * **Retry with original workflow**: If you want to retry the execution without making changes to your workflow, you can select this option to retry the execution with the previous execution data.
