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.

note

Placeholders can be used with the syntax [%placeholder name%] in all text fields.

Email connection	The SMTP servers are available here as configured instances of the OPC plug-in.
Number of recipients	Enter the number of recipients here. The transfer object will provide this number of elements, which you fill with e-mail addresses at runtime, e.g. from variables or a database table. You can use a dynamic database filter to flexibly design the group of recipients.
Number of CC	Like number of recipients. If CC is specified, all CC recipients are added to each email.
Sender	The sender of the email must have the format of an email address (name@domain.xx).
Display name	This name is displayed as the sender.
Reply-To	Enter an e-mail address if a reply e-mail from the recipient should not be sent to you but to another recipient.
On behalf	Enter the e-mail address of the person on whose behalf you have written the e-mail.
Subject	Subject line of the e-mail.
Number of file attachments	Provides a corresponding number of elements for file paths/names in the transfer object, which you can fill either via a constant object or dynamically at runtime. These file(s) are then sent as attachments. The path of the file is then dragged into the corresponding line of the transfer object.
Attachments as binary data	The attachments are converted into binary data. A line for the file name and one for the file content is then displayed in the transfer object in the workspace.
Text as HTML	Delivers the e-mail in HTML format.
Send emails individually	An email is sent to each recipient individually so that the individual recipient cannot see who else the email has been sent to. Even if an e-mail address does not work, all other recipients can still receive their message.
Text content	Text of the e-mail.
Placeholder	Define any variables here that you fill at runtime, e.g. with process values or messages. Create a new placeholder with the plus button. Select a placeholder and insert it into the text using "Insert in subject line" or "Insert".
