Fetch the name and the error of the previous action (to inform an error)

I want to create an action that I can paste before any action that I want to watch so it can infrom me in case of a failure.
 
So far I can get the following information:
Workflow: @{workflow().tags.flowDisplayName}
Link to the failed flow: @{concat('https://us.flow.microsoft.com/manage/environments/', workflow()?['tags']?['environmentName'], '/flows/', workflow()?['name'], '/runs/', workflow()?['run']['name'])}
Link to the details of the flow: @{concat('https://us.flow.microsoft.com/manage/environments/', workflow()?['tags']?['environmentName'], '/flows/', workflow()?['name'], '/details')}
 
And I also want:
The name of the failed action (´Get a row by ID' in this case)
The error why I got that (for example, Timeout, "The 'inputs.parameters' of workflow operation 'Get_Contacto' of type 'OpenApiConnection' is not valid.", or whatever)
 
If I can get those two, that would a killer action that I can copy & paste everywhere!
