Show Task Output in Bionic Rule Results Excel Sheet
Troubleshooting a bionic Rule, or just confirming that it's working as you want it to, is a real bother. The Excel sheet that I receive as a result of running the Rule does not include the outputs of each individual Task. Custom Rules do include the data set that comes out of the Setup Rule step and gets handed to the Setup Action step.
For the Fetch Tasks, I can view equivalent results by creating separate Reports that match the logic. However, that's time-consuming, especially if I'm tweaking the Fetch Tasks over and over to get them just right. And then, the results of the Transform/Pivot/Merge Tasks are completely invisible.
For example, I'm using a Bionic Rule to filter MDA data and join it to Account data. It would help me to confirm that the MDA data is being fetched accurately if I could add a few Show Fields from the Account data in the Merge Task, to see them next to the MDA data, even though those Show Fields will not ultimately be used in the "Set Score" Rule Actions. I can go ahead and add them as Show Fields, sure, but there's nowhere in the Rule output Excel doc where I can [i]view them.
Even if I can't see the results of each individual Task, it would be great to be able to see the final output of the entire flow of Tasks, so I can see which data is being handed to the Setup Action step. For example, that would let me see whether certain aggregated data is coming through with zeros or with nulls.
