Hello everyone,

Is it possible to trigger automatically an email when the automation is down ?

thanks

I know that the option exists for qlik saas application. When it fail or when it succed i can automatically receive an email.

Hello,

I know i can configure webhook but i think it's not the good way.

Maybe something like, after each reload of app, check if the date is the right date if yes then reload

Hi @random_user_3869

If I understand correctly, do you need to send an email whenever automation fails?

If that's case, you can configure the automation to trigger the 'Run Failed' Webhook event from the Qlik Cloud Services connector.

If I have misunderstood your question, please feel free to elaborate on the use case.

Thanks

Hi @random_user_3869

I have noticed you mention that it's not a good way to use webhook event.

Just curious to know what's blocking you with webhook usage.

Thanks

Thanks for the support.

Maybe i didn't understand clearly the webhook.

Basically i don't know how to configure the webhook in order to send an email.

I know where to configure the webhook but i don't know how to use it properly (this way).

Instead of using webhook i thought about using another workflow to send a mail to a list of user.

Is it possible ?

Hi @random_user_3869

There is a template configured in Qlik Application Automation that sends an email with a list of automations that have failed runs in the past X days which might be suitable for your use case.

https://community.qlik.com/t5/Official-Support-Articles/Alert-on-failed-automations-in-the-last-X-days/ta-p/1990061

Another alternative is to configure the automation to trigger on an event called "Run Failed" and add Send Mail block to send email to the list of emails of your choice.

I have created demo automation for your reference.

More info on how to use webhooks can be found here

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks

Hi @random_user_3869

You can use Qliksense Task Failure Email alert tool it is easier to configure.

Github Link: https://github.com/NickAkincilar/QlikSense-Task-Failure-Email-Alerts

All steps are present in above link how to configure with Qlik sense.

Best part is it will auto mail with attachment failure log.

In case of any query please let me know.
