# result

The `result` dictionary is produced once per process and contains information about what happened, primarily intended for use in graphical user interfaces.

## Overview

These members are available in each result produced.

```javascript
{
    success: "Status of processing."
    instance: "Name of processed instance or null if no instance were processed."
    plugin: "Instance of current plug-in at the time."
    duration: "Time in milliseconds taken to process a pair."
    error: "Instance of exception thrown (if any)."
    records: "List of log messages made."
}
```

## Example

```python
import pyblish.util
context = pyblish.util.publish()

for result in context.data["results"]:
  print("Success!" if result["success"] else "Failed..")

  # All log messages are captured in `records`
  for record in result["records"]:
    print(record)
```
