Appian RPA - How to Send Notifications When "Open Browser" Fails?

Certified Senior Developer

Hi,

I'm using the Open Browser action in Appian RPA to launch a legacy web application. Occasionally, the website may be down, and when that happens, the bot execution fails with an error like "unable to navigate to URL."

In such cases, I would like to trigger a notification (ideally an email) to inform the support team immediately about the failure.

My questions are:

  1. Is there any default mechanism in Appian RPA to send notifications (like emails) on task failures?

  2. If not, what’s the best practice to implement an email notification when an action like Open Browser fails?

Any guidance or examples would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance.
