# Process Mining Insights

## Overview

Process Mining offers Users a quick way to gain valuable insights into their processes without digging too deeply into the details. This method is enhanced with built-in Machine Learning capabilities that allow Users to identify the root cause of attributes. There are six types of insights available:

- **Duration Insights**: These insights predict the expected duration of a process under specific conditions.
- **Length Insights**: Length Insights provide information on the expected length (number of activity executions) of a process given certain conditions.
- **Outcome Insights**: Outcome Insights provide information for the most recent activity performed in the process, enabling Users to understand the final step before completion.
- **Variant Insights**: Variant Insights reveal the expected process behavior (variant type) when specific conditions are met.
- **Attribute Frequency Insights**: Attribute Frequency Insights showcase the most frequent attribute values within a process.
- **Attribute Value Insights**: Attribute Value Insights predict the expected values for specific attributes under certain conditions.

## Discovering Insights

Process Mining Insights is available for all plugins within an event log.

To open Insights:

1. Double-click on an event log and click on the 'Brain' icon located at the top right within the Analyzer plugin.
2. Select **Discover Insights** from the Dropdown menu.![](https://cdn.document360.io/6ef8bcc1-6489-4486-9ad1-83acff7e5df0/Images/Documentation/ezgif.com-video-to-gif-converter%20(17).gif)

## Working with Insights

- Each insight comes with a description explaining its causes and effects.
- To view the effect of an insight, click on the **View** button associated with it. This enables Users to visualize the results based on the specified conditions.
- When viewing insights, temporary filters are created to display relevant information. Users can restore insights to their original state to remove these filters.![](https://cdn.document360.io/6ef8bcc1-6489-4486-9ad1-83acff7e5df0/Images/Documentation/ezgif.com-video-to-gif-converter%20(18).gif)
- Insights cannot be saved and will be removed after closing the log file. However, any generated filters can be saved for future use.
- The **Delete** icon: Clicking this icon will delete all discovered insights and create a clean workspace.
- The **Delete with an arrow pointing up** icon: Clicking this icon will restore the log to its original state, undoing any changes made by clicking **View** on a specific insight.
