I'm trying to figure out a way to put the name of the action that error'd out, causing my OnFailure action list to fire.

In my OnFailure action list, I&nbsp;send a build failed email, and I'd like to be able to put the name of the action that last had an error so I&nbsp;know where the build failed.

Is it possible to somehow retrieve the name of the last errored action via scripting etc?

Hi Eric   
  
 This is not currently possible for the OnFailure Action list, however it is possible for Try/Catch blocks. The Catch action allows you to specify variable’s save the error action description and the error message.
