Hello All,

How can I get notified via e-mail if a job fails?

I am on AWX 20.0.1 version.  
I checked the Notification settings but those are applicable for hosts but for jobs.

Is there any option available to enable notifications when a job fails?

Thanks & Regards,  
Amey.

I found following mail thread related to similar requirement = [https://groups.google.com/g/awx-project/c/51uP8kjuqe4](https://groups.google.com/g/awx-project/c/51uP8kjuqe4)

But, I am not able to find {{ job.artifacts }} variable in AWX Notification configuration page.

Yes you can set it up to get notifications on job failures, see this section in particular [https://docs.ansible.com/automation-controller/latest/html/userguide/notifications.html#enable-and-disable-notifications](https://docs.ansible.com/automation-controller/latest/html/userguide/notifications.html#enable-and-disable-notifications)

see the “failed” attribute here, which should be relevant [https://docs.ansible.com/automation-controller/latest/html/userguide/notification\_parameters\_supported.html](https://docs.ansible.com/automation-controller/latest/html/userguide/notification_parameters_supported.html)

but please read the entire chapter for additional info
