Inorder to read the JSON Object, let’s use Parse JSON..

Note that there were few important properties to take note..

capabilities : It identifies whether Flow needs Premium Subscription
environmentFlowSuspensionReason : It indicates if the exact reason when the flow had intermittenly terminated
state:
trigger type: It tells about the type of trigger which was used for the flow.

Hope this way, you can send email notification to support team to further investigate if there is any issue with the flow.

Cheers,

PMDY
