The Output and History tabsheet is located at the bottom of MySQL Workbench, and can be toggled on or off. It contains a select box that includes Action Output, Text Output, and History options.

The Action Output tabsheet displays a summary of the communication between the script and the server. The messages displayed can be information or errors. Each message displays the time, the action that was carried out, and the response from the server. This output is useful for troubleshooting scripts.

The Text Output tabsheet will display a textual representation of the query, as displayed using the MySQL Console. Use Query, Execute (All or Selection) to Text to send output to this tabsheet.

The History tabsheet provides a history of SQL operations carried out. The time and SQL code for each operation is recorded. To view the SQL executed, click the time, and the SQL code executed will be displayed in the SQL column.
