Does anyone know if the request result is available in an HTTP action when external error handling is enabled and the request fails?

The error path has the following available:

```auto
$.hTTPRequest.error.workflowErrorMessage
$.hTTPRequest.error.workflowStatusCode
$.hTTPRequest.statusCode

```

However, these never seem to have any data available.

Any answer to this ?! - It was previously fetching the error displayed in the response of the HTTP Operation . Currently not fetching the failure/error messages when we use this - $.hTTPRequest1.error , might need them to understand what the failure is about .

@colin_mckibben could you please help on this? Am also seeing that Error handling is not providing HTTP request responses while taking trigger data.
