# Executions
|
|
|
|
An execution is a single run of a workflow.
|
|
|
|
## Execution modes
|
|
|
|
There are two execution modes:
|
|
|
|
* Manual: run workflows manually when testing. Select **Test Workflow** to start a manual execution. You can do manual executions of active workflows, but n8n recommends keeping your workflow set to **Inactive** while developing and testing.
|
|
* Production: a production workflow is one that runs automatically. To enable this, set the workflow to **Active**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Execution lists
|
|
|
|
n8n provides two execution lists:
|
|
|
|
* [Workflow-level executions](/workflows/executions/single-workflow-executions/): this execution list shows the executions for a single workflow.
|
|
* [All executions](/workflows/executions/all-executions/): this list shows all executions for all your workflows.
|
|
|
|
n8n supports [adding custom data to executions](/workflows/executions/custom-executions-data/).
