Qlik Sense Task Reload Failure Notification Emails

[haty]

Is there a way to get Qlik Sense to send email notifications when a reload task fails?

Not at this time, see this thread: Qlik Sense task schedule failure notifications

Hi

Not sure if you have already found a workaround to this but I have found this solution.

Reload Failure Email Alerts can be set up using a configuration file written in xml and placed in a specific folder location on the Sense Server:

C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Sense\Scheduler

The file has to be called 'LocalLogConfig.xml' so that it can be recognised by Qlik and you must have an SMTP server that can be used. We have exchange at our organisation, however, common mail providers can be used such as Gmail.

The file also has to be written in a precise structure as attached. This can be adapted to suit your needs.

If you would like to use an external mail account such as Gmail then I would suggest reading this article: https://community.qlik.com/t5/Qlik-Sense-Enterprise-Documents/Sending-e-mail-alerts-in-Qlik-Sense-En...

Let me know how you get on.

Kind regards

Hi @Chalorme ,

For Sense entreprise we dont have anything out of the box.

In Sense Saas this is possible - https://help.qlik.com/en-US/cloud-services/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Sense_Hub/Alerting/monitoring-cha...

Hi @haty  There is another solution available to achieve this using Qlik Web Connectors.

See this  comprehensive guide  Setting Up Qlik Sense to Send Email Notifications on Reload Task Failure

thanks for the reply, currently there is no file named LocalLogConfig.xml in the path C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Sense\Scheduler.

1. Do I need to use the attached example file and configure required details in it ? 

2. Also how I can get smtpHost details ? is it the mail server which is being used ? or it is something related to Qlik. ?

thanks in advance.
