Error Handler

Error Handlers catch exceptions thrown inside a Sequence, an Activity or Subprocess, stop the executions inside, and redirects the executions of the process to recovery. From an Error Handler, you can configure to resume the execution, or to end it once the error is fixed. A Sequence, Activity or Subprocess can have none, one, or multiple Error Handlers as long as the Exception Type is different from the others.

Note: The Error Handler activity corresponds to the Error Boundary Event element in BPMN.

Importante:

You can attach Error Handlers to Sequences, Activities or Subprocesses exlusively.

Use case

Use the Error Handler activity when you:

• Need to catch an error for a single, specific Sequence or Activity.

• Have a simple error handling logic that involves one Sequence or Activity.

For example, for a Send Invoice Sequence, the Error Handler:

• Captura un fallo

• Enruta el proceso a:

  • Retry it, or

  • Notifique al equipo de finanzas y continúe con la ejecución.
