3688428 - E-mail notification not received for a failed story publication task in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)

Symptom

  • If a publication fails or is partially successful, the owner of the publication does not receive external email notifications indicating the failure.
  • In-app notifications are received for failed publications, but corresponding email notifications are not sent.

Environment

SAP Analytics Cloud 2025.14.12

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Log in to SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC).
  2. Create a failed publication for a story.
  3. Observe that an in-app notification is received for the failed publication, but no email notification is sent.

Cause

Notification reasons under the e-mail column were not properly selected for the owner in the notification settings.

Resolution

  1. Navigate to System -> Administration -> Notifications -> Edit.
  2. Under Notification Reason, ensure the following options are selected in the email column:
    • "Automatic task failed"
    • "Automatic task completed successfully or partially successfully"
  3. Save the changes.

Please note that after adjusting the above settings, you will only receive E-mails for failed tasks. E-mails for the successfully completed tasks are not sent out and it is by design. However, you will receive an in-app notification for the successful publication tasks as well.
