    The following code can be used:

        listMessages=ExtAPI.Application.Messages
    for message in listMessages:
        print(message.Severity, message.DisplayString)

    Hi Pernelle, I want to collect id's of vertices / edges / faces / bodies for each error/ warning message for some automation task. Is it possible to do that ?

    Hi @Sameer , what is collected here is just the string returned by Mechanical, which unfortunately does not show the id number of the offending geometry.
