  2. Workflow Used: Named ‘Error Logger’.

  3. Steps to Set Up:

    • Step 1: Add an error trigger in the ‘Error Logger’ workflow, which activates when another workflow encounters an error.
    • Step 2: In the active main workflow (e.g., ‘Ultimate Assistant Active Workflow’), navigate to settings via the top right three dots.

    • Step 4: Save changes to link the workflows.
  4. Example Execution:
