Workflow Error Notifications

Receive a notification for whenever one of my workflows encounters an error.

This would avoid missing leads in real time due to undetected errors.

HubSpotからのアップデート

👋 Everyone,

 

Workflow Issue Notifications is now live for all Enterprise customers. You can receive notifications of workflow issues via Slack, Email, Facebook Workplace, MS Teams, Mobile, Browser, or with In-app notifications on a per workflow basis. As a result, less business critical workflows can continue to be managed through the workflows Needs Review tab, but users can receive notifications for higher priority workflow issues every time they occur, or after as set period of time defined by the user. Workflow notifications are available in Enterprise-level HubSpot portals.

 

Two steps are needed for an account to receive this notification: notification recipients need to be selected per workflow, and those recipients need to opt-in to that notification per channel.

 

For the first step, to turn on issue notifications for a workflow, users will go to Workflows > Settings and notifications > Notifications tab. Then they'll set select the desired individuals or teams that will receive notifications for that workflow. Lastly, they'll turn the When Workflow Needs Review toggle to On.

 

For the second step, in order for each of those recipient to receive this notification, they will need to opt-in to one or more notification channels. To do so, users will first go to Settings > Your preferences > Notifications. Then will select the tab for a notification channels Email, Desktop, or Slack.

 

Then, to opt-in for this notification within each desired channel, users will expand the Workflows accordion. Within that accordion, users will check the checkbox next to When a workflow needs review.

 

For more information on setting up user notifications, check out this knowledge article.

 

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback on workflow issue notifications! 

 

Best,

Jess

👋 Everyone,

 

We released the next iteration of workflow issue/error management to public beta last week. With this update you can set preferences for the types of workflow issues you want to monitor. You can choose to ignore trivial issues indefinitely, while critical issues can be set for review every time they occur. You can also set preferences to review specific workflow issues on certain dates or after set time periods. The preferences you set will determine what shows up for review on the tab on the main workflows page. We expect this feature to go to an automated rollout for everyone begin using it next week. If you would like to join the public beta this week, go to Product Updates > Early Access > [Public Beta] Workflows - Issue Details Panel with Reminders.

The next iteration of workflow issue/error management is workflow notifications.

 

Question regarding workflow notifications for anyone who would like to share feedback: Is there a prefered channel through which you would like to receive notifications about workflow issues?  Slack, email, in-app, mobile app, any other channels? I appreciate your feedback!

 

Thank you,

Jess

Hi, Everyone,

We are working on a series of error management improvements in 2023,
including notifications. The first improvement (it's not notifications)
will be out of beta and available to everyone next week. It includes
additional information about workflows with errors, along with the ability
to clear the workflow from the workflows with errors list
<>.
Error Notifications is coming - I will definitely update this group with
beta details when it's ready. I appreciate all your insights and patience.

Best,
Jess

Our team is currently evaluating the best way to notify users about workflow events. If anyone would be interested in speaking with us (the product team) about their use case, feel free to send me a direct message and we can set up some time to talk!

Hi @Herschel. Thanks for the reply here. I had an itchy finger on that one and saved before it was ready.

 

Just to note here, this status does not mean that the idea is rejected. It just means that we have reviewed it, but have not prioritized it in our roadmap. We will update this thread if that changes.

Hi HubSpot Community,

 

Thank you for taking the time to contribute and vote on this idea. We don't currently have this specific feature planned, but we are currently looking at ways to improve our error and alerts system. The current path is to help surface these better in-app. If anyone would like to be a part of the beta when it is available, please let us know.

 

Thank you,

Jesse

We are having structural issues with our workflow automations go unnoticed because of a lack of error notifications.

 

Three years seems like a long time to be waiting for a basic feature like error notifications.

Hello, we are also waiting on this!! We have a workflow to setup new customers and need to check everyday if there is an error to make sure no new customer request falls through the cracks!  Please just add an "email notification" action to notify of workflow errors!

Thank you for the background in this decision @jtremblay. I would like to be added to the beta on this whenever it is available.

 

Just last week we discovered that one of our Workflows was getting an error when sending an internal email notification to a group email because someone within our organization had accidentally unsubscribed. This issue, which caused potential leads to not be delivered to our sales team, went unnoticed for months due to this lack of error notifications.

Dear @jtremblay. I would like to be added to the beta on this whenever it is available. This point is very important for us

Our team uses the slack integration a lot and likes to stay up-to-date in real-time, especially for webinar registrations, through slack. We would love to see an error notification through slack as well, this would allow us to fix the error before the issue snowballs. 

 

We'd be happy to be a beta tester for this feature!

This feature is essential! Any updates on this?

I really need to know whether my workflows were working or not. How is it possible that i dont have any status on the workflow? Especially when the error is clearly shown in the history. Please make the already existing status accessible!

This would be an essential feature. When delivering leads to sales or handling urgent customer requests, it's crucial to know if something didn't go through. It's not practical to have to go to each and every workflow to see the errors.

Excel have been notifying of formula errors for 30 years. This is long overdue. 

 

Please add me to the BETA list.
