I am using “Send Email” action for error handling in my active transfer events.  
How can I get error details in sendEmail action in any MFT event. .  
Below variable is not displaying error details in email.  
%the\_file\_error%

Is there any other variable which can get error details?

Hi Vineet,

Does the getLastError not giving you enough error stack for this mft event handled from that event processing service?

Hi,

Try below formats in the email body in the event and let me know if it works-
