Dynamically update email address in events

Ranjith_udaykumar

Hello,

We have a process of informing the end user in case of worklfow errroring.When user changes we have to update the workflow in the production server. I am planning ouse an input file with user email addresses. I am able to use this for email tool. but not for the events. 

Can we dynamically change the reciepient email address in Alteryx events?

@Ranjith_udaykumar My guess is not very easily. The only way I can think of to do that would be to have another workflow that updated the underlying XML of the workflow in question to be the desired email address.

 

Are you able to email a shared mailbox and give the correct users access to the mailbox?

@Ranjith_udaykumar  you can change this process to send emails from the server. This way, when the email updates, you can change it from the server settings instead of having to open and edit the workflow.

We have 500+ workflows with different user email addresses. I wonder updating server is not possible. I will park this for now.
