I've been working with Python scripts in Automation Anywhere, and I’m wondering — if there's an error in the script, is there a way to see the specific error details directly in AA, rather than just getting a generic bot error?

Any insights or best practices would be appreciated!

​@Aaron.Gleason  Thank you for your response. However, I’d like to clarify my question:
Is it possible to view the Python script error directly within Automation Anywhere itself, instead of having to navigate to the folder path you mentioned?
