Currently, we have an automated process that calls the REST APIs to collect Dataflow and Dataset refresh histories for 20+ workspaces.

When a failure occurs in any refreshes, an automatic email notification is sent to interested parties.

It is very useful in the case of the Dataset Refresh Results that the Error information is included when a refresh Fails.

However, the Dataflow refresh history via API Call does not include error information when a Dataflow refresh fails.

The error information is available via manual download to CSV file, but this is far too cumbersome when monitoring hundreds of dataflows across many Workspaces.


Please add the Error information to the Dataflow Transaction History API Call

This is a high priority to our company so please take it in consideration.

RE: Add Error Text to the Transaction API call for Dataflows

We cannot automate the monitoring in the customer's environment without this functionality. Currently, information must be downloaded manually, which is a problem for the customer.
