The Health Checker analyzes every workflow in your portal and produces a score from 0 to 100, reflecting how much of your portal is free from structural issues.
  • Green — 70% or above. Your portal is in good shape.
  • Amber — 50 to 69%. Issues worth addressing.
  • Red — below 50%. Significant structural problems.
Issues are grouped into three severities: critical, warning, and informational.

Critical

The issues most likely to be actively breaking something. These carry the most weight against your score.

Broken Enrollments

A workflow enrolls records into another workflow that’s deleted or inactive, so contacts hit a dead end and miss what was supposed to happen next.

Circular Dependencies

Two or more workflows are connected in a loop, enrolling records back into each other. This can cause repeat enrollment, duplicate sends, and reporting that’s impossible to trust.

Warnings

Worth addressing, though not actively breaking.

Duplicate Actions

The same property value is written by multiple active workflows, which creates race conditions and makes it unclear which workflow actually owns the field.

Empty Workflows

A workflow is configured with no actions. Records may enroll with nothing happening.

Stale Workflows

An active workflow hasn’t been updated in over 6 months. Its logic may no longer match your current process.

Informational

Surfaced for awareness. These don’t reduce your score, but they’re useful for inventory and cleanup.

Standalone Workflows

Active workflows with no connections to anything else. Often intentional, but worth confirming they aren’t forgotten or redundant.

Possible Duplicates

Workflows with similar names that may indicate redundancy. Consider consolidating if they serve the same purpose.

Inactive Workflows

Workflows currently turned off, listed so you can decide whether to reactivate with a clear owner or archive for good.

How the score is calculated

The score is based on the share of your workflows that are clean. A workflow with no issues earns full credit. A workflow with only warning-level issues earns half credit. A workflow with a critical issue earns none. Informational flags carry no penalty. This means a portal with a handful of genuinely broken workflows scores lower than the raw count might suggest, instead of letting a large number of healthy workflows mask the ones that matter.
