# Run action pipelines

Before you begin

Review Define and assign policies.

You can configure WLOC to run an action pipeline automatically when a service violates a service level agreement, as described in Assign policies to services. There are times, however, when you may want to run an action pipeline manually.

Note: You cannot run an action pipeline manually that contains a deployment action (for example, StartServiceAction).

To run an action pipeline:

1. Access the Actions page in one of the following ways:
   - Click the Policies tab in the WLOC navigation bar, click the Definitions tab, and click the Actions tab.
   - Click the Home tab in the WLOC navigation bar and click Actions under Manage Policies.

   The list of currently defined actions is displayed in the Actions Pipelines table.

2. To filter the list of action pipelines, enter Column=Value in the text box and click Filter.

   Column specifies the table column name on which you want to filter. Value specifies a string value on which to filter the contents. To clear the filter, click Clear Filter.

3. Select the check box next to the action pipeline that you want to run.

   You can run only one action pipeline at a time.

4. Click Run Pipeline.
5. Modify the following fields, as required.

   Field | Description
   --- | ---
   Service Name | Name of the service to run the action pipeline against.
   Process Group | Name of the process group in the service to run the action pipeline against.
   Process Instance | Name of the process instance to run the action pipeline against.

6. Click Finish.

   The action pipeline request is processed and the following confirmation message is displayed:
