systemctl
Returns a list of the units, whether they are loaded, active, their sub and description.
systemctl is-failed
Returns a list of status only.
What is the syntax to return the details of the failed units?

You can use systemctl list-units --state=failed to list all failed units.
EDIT: Since systemd version 233 (March 2017) systemctl --failed is documented as equivalent to the above.
The parameters for systemctl are documented in the man page systemctl(1).

14I see. And from the PR discussion I learned that we can drop
list-unitsand go withsystemctl --failedby itself :)– sshowCommented Aug 2, 2017 at 20:22 -
12I find it very irritating that
systemctl statustells me the one+ things are failed, but wont tell me what. I need to run another command, not under thestatussubcommand to find out. Shame. Commented Jun 22, 2018 at 3:02 -
@NathanLilienthal request a change from the systemd folks. They are quite opinionated on "the one right way of doing things", though.– vonbrandCommented Feb 25, 2020 at 15:12
This is more simple:
systemctl --failed
