Error Message

[njoyotm]

Hi,

What is the purpose of Raise Error in Automation Agent.
Any time I give an Error Message in the agent, It fails to work.
Why is this so.

Is there a way to send a pop up or trigger a screen at the completion of an agent?

Regards,

Re: Error Message

The "Raise Error" action is meant to abort the current agent and transfer control to its error handler. The optional error message is returned to a process waiting for the agent, not to the user.

For an explanation, see "Utility Agent Actions" in the online help.

You cannot trigger a screen or pop-up from an agent, since it may run while nobody is logged on at all - the agent has no means to "know" if the browser is still open.

But, you could use a notification action at the end. For example, the "Ad Hoc Notify Contact" action could send an email after all other steps of your agent are completed.

Re: Error Message

With RAISE ERROR you force the agent to jump to the Error Handling
