[@Shan](https://matillioncommunity.discourse.group/u/Shan)​ For a long everyone expecting this feature. Unfortunately as of now, we don't have an option in Matillion. ---

Hello, you can use the SNS notification component inside of your Matillion jobs, for example in case of an error. If you need a seperate process you can read the complete task history details also via Matillion API, so you can create a seperate process for example outside of Matillion to read the task history by API, check details and send emails in case that jobs are failed. ---

Hello, sorry for the late feedback, i was last week on vacation. You can use the Version 0 of Matillion API to get informations from task history independent from project. For this use for example "https://[your-instance-URL]/rest/v0/tasks?running=false&since=2021-06-28". In this example you receive all tasks from today. I hope this helps to fulfill your requirements.   Regards, Dirk ---
