Send Email on Report Failure

We need an email sent to the report author when a scheduled report fails. This way, we could re-run the report or research the failure.

    A failed schedule is one thing but we also encounter the issue of flaky email servers adding to our problems. Is there a way we could report on none delivery of a scheduled or burst email? We also support https://ibm-data-and-ai.ideas.ibm.com/ideas/CA-I-4143

    Yes, please, we have been using Cognos since 2004, and this question is asked almost on a weekly basis.

    This is a great idea, Watson Care Manager clients currently complain that emails do not land, when the schedule is broken.

    Getting an email, if the delivery option is set to email, when the schedule fails would be greatly appreciated for clients of Watson Care Manager.

    PMsquare offers a product that can send emails on scheduled report failures called Thrive. You can read more about it here. Full disclosure, I am the Thrive product manager ;)

    @rick

    Thank you @Rick for the attachment.

    Is there a way to limit the results to only reports that are scheduled? (as opposed to all reports that ran)

     

    Thanks

    We created a report that runs daily and is sent to the administrators and they then contact the users.

    Attached is a file on how it was created.
