How to obtain error status of automation via SSJS

Question

I have the below SSJS which gives the status of scheduling in automation. But it doesn't give the status of automation:

For example, if my automation errored, then am getting the status '6' which is scheduled instead of status '-1'. This status '6' is scheduled status of my automation .But i need the running status which is '-1' here.

Thanks for your help in advance!

SSJS:

<script runat="server">
Platform.Load("Core","1.1.1");
var output = "";

var automationCustomerKey = "automationextrnalkey"

var rr = Platform.Function.CreateObject("RetrieveRequest");
Platform.Function.SetObjectProperty(rr, "ObjectType", "Automation");
Platform.Function.AddObjectArrayItem(rr, "Properties", "ProgramID");
Platform.Function.AddObjectArrayItem(rr, "Properties", "CustomerKey");
Platform.Function.AddObjectArrayItem(rr, "Properties", "Status");

var sfp = Platform.Function.CreateObject("SimpleFilterPart");
Platform.Function.SetObjectProperty(sfp, "Property", "CustomerKey");
Platform.Function.SetObjectProperty(sfp, "SimpleOperator", "equals");
Platform.Function.AddObjectArrayItem(sfp, "Value", automationCustomerKey);

Platform.Function.SetObjectProperty(rr, "Filter", sfp);

var retrieveStatus = [0,0,0];

var automationResultSet = Platform.Function.InvokeRetrieve(rr, retrieveStatus);
//output += "<br>automationResultSet: " + Stringify(automationResultSet);

var ObjectID = automationResultSet[0]["ObjectID"];
var Status = automationResultSet[0]["Status"];

if (ObjectID != "null") {

    output += "<br>" + automationCustomerKey + " ObjectID : " + ObjectID;
    output += "<br>" + automationCustomerKey + " Status: " + Status;

    /*
    Code Status
    -1   Error
     0   BuildingError
     1   Building
     2   Ready
     3   Running
     4   Paused
     5   Stopped
     6   Scheduled
     7   Awaiting Trigger
     8   InactiveTrigger
    */

} else {
  output += "<br>" + automationCustomerKey + " not found";

}

Write("<br>" + output);

</script>

EDIT

Since you are setting this up on a CloudPage, an easier approach would be to call the AutomationInstance object using WSProxy, which should retrieve all the automation runs with its statuses:

<script runat="server">

Platform.Load("Core","1.1.1");

  var prox = new Script.Util.WSProxy();

  var cols = ["Name","Status"];
  var filter = {
      Property: "CustomerKey",
      SimpleOperator: "EQUALS",
      Value: "automationCustomerKey"
  };
  var res = prox.retrieve("AutomationInstance", cols, filter);

</script>
