Propagate workflow.failOnIgnore setting to run status and notifications
acknowledged
Anuj Garlapati
Currently, when tasks fail with
errorStrategy
'ignore', the workflow.failOnIgnore
setting in Nextflow does not appear to be fully respected in Seqera Platform. Users expect that:- If workflow.failOnIgnore = true, the run should be marked as failed, and this should trigger the standard “run failed” email notification.
- If workflow.failOnIgnore = false, the run should be marked as successful, even if some tasks were ignored.
Optional (nice-to-have, not a priority):
- The failed run email could explicitly mention that the failure was due to ignored tasks.
- Additional UI indicators could highlight ignored-task failures (although the current task overview is already sufficient).
