An orchestration that contains the Send Email activity is acting as an email client during run time.
Field | Description |
---|---|
From Address | Specifies the sender address for the email message. You must specify the email address using the standard email format: email@domain.extension. This field is required. |
To | Specifies the recipient's addresses for the email message. You must specify the email addresses using the standard email format: email@domain.extension. One or more addresses can be specified. Separate the addresses with commas or semicolons. You must specify at least one address. This field is required. |
CC | Specifies the carbon copy's addresses for the email message. You must specify the email addresses using the standard email format: email@domain.extension. One or more addresses can be specified. Separate the addresses with commas or semicolons. This field is optional. |
Subject | Specifies the subject of the email message. |
Field | Description |
---|---|
Retry | |
1) Wait ___ second(s) between each retry. | Specifies the number of seconds that the Integration Appliance waits before trying to establish a connection to the SMTP Server. |
2) Try to connect ___ times before failing. | Specifies the retry count - the maximum number
of times the Integration Appliance attempts to establish a connection
to the SMTP Server before issuing an error and stopping the processing
of the current orchestration job. If you deploy an orchestration that contains an Send Email activity and the Integration Appliance cannot connect to the specified SMTP Server, the Integration Appliance logs the connections errors as warnings in the system and orchestration logs until the retry count value is reached. When the retry count is reached, the Integration Appliance logs an error in the system and orchestration logs and the stops processing the current orchestration job. For example, you set the retry count to 3. The first, second, and third connection errors appear in the system log as warnings. The Integration Appliance logs the fourth connection error as an error and stops processing the current orchestration job. |
If the optional mailheader input parameter is not listed in the To Activity pane of the Map Inputs pane, select from the toolbar menu or right-click in the To Activity pane and select the Show Optional Parameters option. If the option is not selectable in the toolbar menu, click on a node in the Map Inputs pane to make this option active.
You can optionally override the settings you specified in the Configure task of the Checklist dynamically during run time by passing in values from variables into the nodes specified in the following table. For example during run time, you can override the setting for the From Address field by mapping a variable to the from node of the mailheader input parameter. During run time, the value of the variable is the from address in the sent email message.
Nodes of the mailheader Input Parameter | Description | Overrides what settings in the Configuring task? |
---|---|---|
from | Specifies the sender address for the email message. You must specify the email address using the standard email format: email@domain.extension. | The from node of the mailheader input parameter overrides the From Address field specified in the Configure task. |
to | Specifies the recipient addresses for the email message. You must specify the email addresses using the standard email format: email@domain.extension. One or more addresses can be specified. Separate the addresses with commas or semicolons. | The to node of the mailheader input parameter overrides the To field specified in the Configure task. |
cc | Specifies the carbon copy addresses for the email message. You must specify the email addresses using the standard email format: email@domain.extension. One or more addresses can be specified. Separate the addresses with commas or semicolons. | The cc node of the mailheader input parameter overrides the CC field specified in the Configure task. |
subject | Specifies the subject of the email message. | The subject node of the mailheader input parameter overrides the Subject field specified in the Configure task. |
mimeHeader | Specifies the MIME header of the email message. | None. |
otherHeaders | Specifies an element that contains a set of MIME headers as name/value pairs not already specified in the mimeHeader node. For example the MIME header: Content-Location is not specified in the MIME header, so the following headerItem node could be equal to the following values: otherheaders/headerItem/name is equal to Content-Location otherHeaders/headerItem/value is equal to the value of the Content-Location MIME header, for example the string: RN-Preamble Multiple MIME headers can be specified, so this is a recurring node. | None. |
