Run Event When After Run With Error

Question

Dear All,

I have scheduled a workflow in Alteryx and configured it to send me an email notification in the event of an error during execution.

The workflow has completed successfully, and the data has been loaded into the database. However, I still received an email indicating that an error occurred.

Can anyone provide insight into how to address this issue or identify any potential misconfigurations? Thanks!

Attached the Scheuler Result, Email and the configuration of Event down below.

Check if below option in your workflow configuration is unchecked.

If so, you can enable it to prevent the workflow from running in case of error. But it is not necessary that all errors are really a problem, so in your case if your workflow is running fine, despite the error, identify which part is raising an error using debug mode and fix that.

Thanks for your reply,

May I know where I can check the log? and also I would like to know what's the meaning of " non-zero exit code"? Thanks!

Based on your description, the most likely reason your Alteryx workflow is sending an "On Error" email despite a successful run is a misconfigured event. While the workflow itself successfully loaded the data, an "After Run" event or a tool within a container might be encountering an error or a non-zero exit code that triggers the notification. To troubleshoot, review the full Alteryx log for any warnings or errors, and check the configuration of any events or external commands that run after the main workflow completes.
