E-Mail Transfer Object
An email object is a possible transfer destination. The needed email (SMTP) server has to be configured as plug in instance. Create a mail transfer object as explained within the connection.
After opening the transfer object, the following properties can be set:
Email connection | The SMTP servers are available here as configured instances of the OPC plug-in. |
---|---|
E-mail set of access data | Here the SMTP server are available as configured instances of the OPC plug in. |
Number of recipients | Enter the number of receivers here. The transfer object will create that number of elements, which are filled from you during run time with email addresses e. g. from variables or a data base table. With a dynamic data base filter you can figure the receivers flexible. |
Number of Cc | As number of recipients. |
Sender | Addresser of the email, has to be in format of an email address (name@domain.xx). |
Display name | This name is displayed as the sender. |
Reply-To | Enter an email address if a reply email from the recipient should not be sent to you but to another recipient. |
On behalf | Enter the email address of the person on whose behalf you wrote the email. |
Subject | Subject line in the email. You can also create placeholders for a dynamic subject line in the subject. Create a new placeholder and then add [%PlaceholderName%] to the subject of the email. |
Number of attachments | Provides a corresponding number of file path / name elements in the transfer object, which you can either dynamically fill via a constant object or at runtime. This file(s) will then be sent as attachments |
Attachments as binary data | The attachments are converted to binary data. A line for the file name and one for the file content will then be displayed in the transfer object in the workspace. |
Text as HTML | Gives out the mail in HTML format. |
Send mails individually | An email is sent to each recipient individually, so that the individual recipient cannot see to whom the email was still sent. Even if an email address does not work, all other recipients can still receive their message. |
Content | Text in the email. Fill in Placeholders via drag & drop, which are filled from you during runtime. |
Placeholder | Define any variables, which are filled from you during runtime, e. g. with process values or messages. Create a new placeholder with “New”. Mark a placeholder and add it to the text with “Add”. You can also add via double click or drag & drop. |
