Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When running batch operations, especially batch reset. Operator will like to know the status of the job and if the operation fails for any workflow. And if the operation does fail, a list of those failed workflows.
Describe the solution you'd like
A way for operator to get the list of workflows on with the batch operation has failed.
Today we log the failed workflowID, maybe that's enough. But if not, we need to another way:
- tag workflows with some search attributes, so that we can filter visibility later and get the list.
- Return failed workflow list as a result of the workflow.

Research direction
Start by locating the batch-operation entry point and reviewing how failed workflow IDs are currently logged. Decide which proposed outcome is in scope—searchable workflow attributes or a returned failed-workflow list—and define completion around operators being able to retrieve every failed workflow from a batch operation.
