What is the difference between Zap history and Autoreplay in Zapier?

Published ·
At a glance
Short answer
Zap history is the run log that shows each run's status; autoreplay, which replays errors automatically, needs a paid plan.
How far back Zap history goes
Zapier guarantees at most 60 days of run data, displaying up to 10,000 runs.
What Autoreplay re-runs
Only runs with an errored status — not safely halted runs, and not runs on hold.
Plans with Autoreplay
Professional, Team and Enterprise; Zapier marks Free as not eligible, as of September 23, 2026.
Manual replay on Free
Errored runs only; replaying other statuses, such as on hold, needs a paid plan.
Who switches Autoreplay on
An account super admin or owner, account-wide; a Zap's owner can override it for that Zap.
As of

What does Zap history show?

Zap history is the record, not the repair: a page that "displays a log of all Zap workflows that have run," each with a status "to confirm whether your Zap ran successfully."

Zapier can only guarantee a maximum of 60 days of Zap run data, displaying up to 10,000 runs.

What does Autoreplay replay, and on which Zapier plans?

Zapier's replay page scopes Autoreplay in one sentence:

When you enable autoreplay, Zapier will automatically replay any Zap run with an errored status.
Zapier Help Center — Replay Zap runs, read September 23, 2026 ·

Nothing else qualifies: "It will not replay safely halted Zap runs," and a run On hold is paused, not errored.

Autoreplay also needs a paid plan: Zapier lists it for Professional, Team and Enterprise and marks Free as not eligible, for both the account-wide and the per-Zap setting, as of September 23, 2026.

Which do you check first when a Shopify order goes missing?

Zap history, because each run there shows its status; with Autoreplay on, an errored run switches to Scheduled until Zapier completes all autoreplay attempts.

Replay the errored run by hand; Free keeps manual replay with one limit: "On the Free plan, manual replay is only available for Zap runs with an errored status." Replaying a run on hold takes a paid plan, and our Zapier price ladder shows what that step costs.

To re-run errors automatically on a paid plan, an account super admin or owner switches Autoreplay on in Zap History's Zap Runs tab, upper right. A member can override that on a Zap they own: Use account setting, Always replay or Never replay.

Autoreplay also holds back the error email: Zapier replays each step that stopped with an error "up to 5 times" and sends no error notification email until the final attempt fails.

If a recent order never appears in Zap history, there is no run to replay — our Shopify webhook troubleshooting guide traces the route.
