Email alerts when Automation Services jobs fail

I am requesting a push system to alert when an automated services job fails.  In Microsoft SQL Server, I get email alerts when SQL Server Agent jobs fail.  When you have a system sending out data, and that system fails, I normally learn about it 1 hour + after the fact when someone asks where the report is.  

 

Automation Services pushes out a log showing when/where the job failed.  The webplayer portal shows when a job failed.  Both of these I have to look for.  When I have 100 emails going out a day, I need an alert when something fails.

    You can report on it from the Spotfire DB
    "SPOTFIRE"."JOB_INSTANCES_DETAIL_VIEW"

    But hard to schedule and validate if automation goes down...

    Now that automation jobs are available in the admin portal, the addition of a "notify on failure and an email must be easier to achieve? yes?

    Looking forward for this to notify the owner right away on the cause of the failure.

    Agreed. I do not see any in-built alert mechanism within Spotfire either in terms of alert for failed jobs nor for if any services is going down for some reason.
