Save the final job status in a file

[AqueJorge]

Hi, I have a list of jobs(a lot)and I would like to save the status of each job every time its execution time ends in a file, be it a BD, an excel, etc. No matter the result, I would just like to save the final status/result of the job in a file. How could I do it? I have investigated and it is not very clear. Thanks

Hi @AqueJorge 

1-For the machine that is running the workflows, follow these steps to start saving logs: https://help.alteryx.com/20223/designer/output-log-file. This will create a txt file for each workflow execution.

2-Then, you need to parse the txt file to extract information from it and create a flat table. This workflow is able to do it: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Community-Gallery/Parse-Alteryx-Log-Files/ta-p/999093

Hi @AqueJorge 

If you're wanting to save the logs there is an option you can enable from User Settings which saves the logs in a folder of your choice as a text file:

A word of warning with this option, i believe its a global setting so will apply to ALL workflows - https://help.alteryx.com/20223/designer/user-settings

An alternative is to use the Events tab to email out the logs after every run, but they will come as part of the email from what i can recall and not an attachment.
