This is 2026.9 documentation. Coverage here is incremental: a page exists only where 2026.9
differs or is newly documented. For any other topic, switch to Current (2026.8 and earlier) in
the version selector.
This page is about seeing results in the product UI. If your function calls
AttachResultToObjects or attach_result_to_objects inside the run itself, see Attaching
results in 2026.9 for that separate caveat.What’s missing
For a model still in the current (pre-2026.9) data model, results show up exactly as described in Viewing Automation Results: a doughnut icon in the 3D viewer and in the project model list, both opening the same results summary. For a model in the 2026.9 data model, that icon does not appear in either place. This isn’t specific to any one function or trigger — it applies to any 2026.9-format model with a completed run. There’s also no documented, supported API to read the results back as a substitute. Automate functions can write results during a run, but nothing on this site currently documents a query for reading them back afterwards. (The equivalent gap for Data Validation checks specifically is tracked separately; an undocumented internal path exists there but carries no stability guarantee — see Data Validation if that’s what you’re looking for.)Results in dashboards
Dashboards include an Automate results widget that shows a version’s automation runs and the results each function recorded, and isolates the objects a result refers to in the dashboard’s 3D view. It reads a result’s object ids and matches them to objects in the model byapplicationId, so it works for the same reason new runs
do and
not for results stored against a content-hashed id before the model was migrated.
What to do meanwhile
1
Add the Automate results widget to a dashboard
Add the widget to a dashboard on the project and pick the model and version. It lists the runs
and their results, and selecting a result isolates its objects in the 3D view.
2
Keep the workspace on compatibility mode
If you need to see results for a model that would otherwise land in the 2026.9 format —
through ACC sync or drag-and-drop upload — ask us to switch the workspace into compatibility
mode. It keeps that data in the format the current viewer and dashboard already render
correctly. See Data model migration for
workspaces.
3
Confirm the run actually completed
Check the automation’s run history from project Settings → Automations rather than looking
for the results icon. A completed run with no visible icon is this limitation, not a failure.
FAQ
Did my automation actually run if I can't see the results?
Did my automation actually run if I can't see the results?
Yes, if the run history shows it completed. The results icon and any API read path are what’s
missing for 2026.9-format models — the run itself, and what it produced, aren’t affected.
Is there any way to get the results out right now?
Is there any way to get the results out right now?
Yes, through the Dashboards Automate results widget. The other option is compatibility mode,
which keeps new data in the format the existing viewer supports, so the results icon stays
visible the normal way until compatibility mode ends on 1 November 2026.
When will this be fixed?
When will this be fixed?
No committed date yet. It depends on the same underlying frontend work covering the 2026.9 data
model more broadly — see Viewer developer notes in
2026.9 for the closest thing to a timeline.
