Jenkins Pipeline code for Sending an email on Build Failure

post {

To ignore a failed step in declarative pipeline you basically have two options:

Use script step and try-catch block (similar to previous proposition by R_K but in declarative style)
stage('someStage') {
    steps {
        script {
            try {
                build job: 'system-check-flow'
            } catch (err) {
                echo err.getMessage()
            }
        }
        echo currentBuild.result
    }
}
Use catchError
stage('someStage') {
    steps {
        catchError {
            build job: 'system-check-flow'
        }
        echo currentBuild.result
    }
}
In both cases the build won't be aborted upon exception in build job: 'system-check-flow'. In both cases the echo step (and any other following) will be executed.
