Workflows to check Dataflow executions

Hello.

I've been trying to use the "Get Dataflow Execution Status" and "Was Last DataFlow Run Successful" functions, but I'm getting weird results.

I purposely created a dataflow that always fails:

Then I test these functions on the workflow editor I get a "FAILURE" and "false" responses (see images).


However, once I deploy the workflow and run it, the workflow follows the path as if the Dataflow was successful....Am I doing something wrong?

    Are you saying the status variable was updated by the "Get Dataflow Execution Status" step?

    Can you post a screenshot of what shows up for the inputs and outputs for that step, please?

  • On my latest version I'm using the output from "Was Last DataFlow Run Successful":

    And yes, it has a "true" value.

  • But the other block, "Get DataFlow Execution Status" is also "SUCCESS":
