Failure alerts automatically notify you when an Agent node encounters an error. Each alert includes the failed Agent, relevant record IDs, success/failure counts, and diagnostic details.
Set up a failure alert
Open the Agent
Go to Agents and click on the Agent you want to monitor. Enable the shield icon
Hover over the node you want alerts for and click the shield icon. Configure the Error Route
When the shield is enabled, an Error Route appears on the node. Click + on the Error Route and select an alert action (e.g., Slack Message). Set up the alert message
Configure the Slack Message node as you normally would. Two dynamic fields are available:| Field | Content |
|---|
| Node Summary | High-level overview of the failure |
| Task Results | Detailed execution data (error messages, response info) |
Save and activate
Save the Agent and activate it to apply the alert configuration.
Viewing alerts
Once configured:
- Task List — hover over the task list (top right) to see tasks generated by the Agent, including alert messages
- Task Details — click any task to expand the full detail view
- Slack — view the alert directly in your configured channel
Example
An Agent creates Salesforce contacts. One node maps the Full Name field — but Salesforce requires First Name and Last Name separately. The record creation is rejected. With a failure alert configured, a Slack message fires immediately with the error details, so you can fix the field mapping.
Use Node Summary for quick alerts and Task Results when you need full error details for debugging.
