temporal workflow show adds --reverse history ordering
Introduced 2026-04-29 · score 0.97
HOW TO USE IT
To view a workflow’s newest history events first, run `temporal workflow show` with its workflow ID and `--reverse`.
temporal workflow show --workflow-id <workflow-id> --reverseWHY THIS HELPS
Debug a workflow by listing its newest history events first.
REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATIONS
- Version: v1.7.0
- --workflow-id (required): Workflow ID to show.
- --reverse: Fetch event history newest-event-first.
- Prerequisite: Install the Temporal CLI and make the `temporal` binary available on your PATH.
- Docs conflict: Current command reference says `--reverse` cannot be combined with `--follow`; the v1.7.0 release note does not mention this restriction. The current reference is for main, so this restriction is not confirmed for v1.7.0.
