Be able to set a global error handler

77

We all make mistakes so errors will happen. I would like to be able to set an global error handler microflow that will trigger when unexpected errors occur. Because then from an enduser perspective I can handle this error in a more gracefull way then the red screen the user now is getting.

Regards,

Ronald

can we also in the console have a way to:

1. select text without the entire screen going to the bottom.

2. show the action where it goes wrong, and be able to go to that action from the console.

3. have smart error handling for common issues such as 'trying to set something to null' trying to parse a value, etc. (this will help new users troubleshoot what is going on)

 

thx in advance

This would be really useful for us!

Would like to bump this one as it really is needed.

 

Even just adding an ID to the error message for the end user to then provide to our support team would be ideal.

If 6 years is not considered short term, that's a cause for concern on update cycles for new features...

Any update on this? 

 

User would like to know more about what is happening and to whom to contact exactly

So this will help them more and it will be user friendly.

Anu update on this Andrej? I am sure i am not the only one that would like to be able to :

 

  1. See directly what the error was (or not, but i want to have that message right away instead of checking logs)
  2. Be able to give a more friendly message. We have a lot of users and people have no idea why they need to contact their system admin...

Totally agree. It will improve the user-experience.
