In Automate MFT is there a way to retrieve the tasks logs after the task runs.

On our on-prem Automate server we archive the task log files after every task run. This is useful for troubleshooting, especially when you need to look back multiple tasks. Would like to setup a Post Run step to do the same in MFT.

    Hi Kirk,

    Not currently. We are currently in design on on ways to automate log extraction, including via REST API. It sounds like you'd be looking for a built-in step, perhaps, that says 'stash task run log in location X.'

    Alternative question: is there a certain time period or number of task logs that would also match your needs? Or, do you need it to be a specific step?

    Thanks.

    Jim
