Hi @Kuldeep Chitrakarโ€‹ you can use try and catch to handle the exception

 it's just a simple try except  code, something like this:

results = {}
 
were_errors = False
 
for script_name in ['script1', 'script2', 'script3']:
 
  try:    
 
    retValue = dbutils.notebook.run(script_name)
 
    results[script_name] = retValue
 
  except Exception as e:
 
    results[script_name] = "Error: {e}"
 
    were_errors = True
 
 
 
if were_errors:
 
  log failure # you can use data from results variable
 
else:
 
  log success

runtime looks for handlers (try-catch) that are registered to handle such exceptions
