    - Breakpoints
      Breakpoints allow you to intentionally pause a workflow when it reaches a specific location, such as a process step or activity. The workflow automatically pauses whenever a breakpoint is reached if the workflow debugger is attached.

Workflow Debug View

You can view a workflow and the value of its variables during a debugging session.

In the workflow Workspace, debugging commands and controls are active on the debugger control bar. This view also shows current workflow activity and active breakpoints. You cannot edit the workflow because the activity panel is not available; however, the workflow Variable Viewer shows the name, current value, and data type of properties, parameters, and local variables within a selected step.
