On-error mapping

The on-error mapping defines how the flow responds when an activity fails.

On-error mapping improves orchestration resilience by routing flows to error-handling states and providing visual cues for error paths.

With on-error mapping, you can:

  • Define an alternate execution path when an activity encounters an error.
  • Route the flow to a designated error-handling state.
  • Enhance orchestration resilience and monitoring visibility.

Best practices

Follow these best practices when configuring on-error mapping:

  • Use dedicated error-handling states to isolate recovery logic and simplify maintenance.
  • Avoid routing multiple error paths into a single state unless centralized handling is intentional.
  • Test error scenarios to ensure routing behaves as expected and does not affect downstream dependencies.
