How to add error handling for the entire environment?
If it's for a single Recipe we can do, But how to do it for the entire Environment??

What do you mean by entire Environment?

You may use recipe ops to monitor all recipes in the environment and perform necessary actions.

You may also use Centralised error handling called as AOF

Hi Here is an example how it (App called "RecipeOps by Workato") will work. It can listen to your environment, or another envronment, also all recipes or just a subset of recipies. then you decide what you want to do if error happens.

Hi Max, is there a way to filter out callable recipes / functions? As my usecase is that synchronous callable recipes / functions should never be repeated only the job on the recipe itself. The entire 'process' succeeds or fails.

You can try using RecipeOps you can monitor the entire recipes in the environment

Hi Its possible if you filter the recipie failure, by (1) the folder where they are located or (2) naming convention like "fn" prefix, RecipeOps connector does not have today a flag for callable/not callable. However good thing is that If a recipe fails because its callable failed, the RecipeOps will pickup both , here is a screenshot where I filter on simply doing "contains" "Fn" as naming convention, or I could do this by specific folder name

Each of our recipes publish an error message to a Pub-Sub topic if an error is encountered that cannot be resolved by the recipe on-error repeat process. We have a common service we built that subscribes to the error message topic and performs the necessary actions. Now, Workato has the Autonomous Operations Framework (AOF) that we are evaluating and will likely migrate to from our custom solution. Also, as others have mentioned, recipe ops can take your operational resiliency to another level beyond the retry logic.
