Understanding Tasks
Learn how tasks are counted in Paragon.
A task is a unit of work that occurs in the Paragon platform on behalf of your Connected User.
- In Workflows, each successful Action, Request, and Function are counted as tasks. You can see which steps succeeded in the workflow execution view of the Task History page (see screenshot below).

The following steps count as tasks:
The following steps do not count as tasks:

Note: While the Fan Out itself doesn't count as a task, the contents within Fan Outs count as tasks per iteration.
The task limit is the maximum number of tasks you can run before your workflows stop executing during the current billing cycle.
Task usage resets at the beginning of your billing period each month. Unused tasks will not roll over to the next billing period.
You'll receive notification emails from Paragon as you get closer to your task limit.
We'll send an email notifying you that your workflows have stopped executing. Users on any of our paid plans have a five-day grace period to upgrade before workflows stop executing.
Any unfinished tasks will show up in your Task History as a failed workflow. You can replay stopped workflows when your billing cycle restarts or you upgrade your plan.
