Attaching transformation's log
You may easily attach a log file with log of a transformation run by the job prior to sending the mail as follows (suppose we have the job Start -> Transformation -> Mail):
- In the Transformation job entry's options, check "Specify logfile?" and enter a name and extension for the file. You can also specify the desired log level.
- In the Mail job entry's options, check "Attach files to message" and select (at least) the file type "Log".
- Voila! The next time the mail is send, it will have the transformation's log attached.
