I use the email workflow every month, which works fine.  This month I am seeing an error: waiting for client consent'

What does this mean?

How can I fix this?

 

Thanks S7

Hi @Sam7,

 

When you’re setting the tool to Autodetect SMTP, the tool is communicating directly with the target email server and trying to deliver the email.

 

Since the tool is trying to connect to the target email server to deliver the messages, you are at the mercy of the target server accepting the connection hence it will always be a hit or miss process.

 

Please go through this Ned's post  in this community link: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Discussions/How-to-configure-autodiscover-SMTP-ser...

I hope you will be able to get your answers.

Thank you!  After reading the link, I played around removing BCC and Receiver list.  I had to manually add the BCC list, not use connection to my Excel.

 

I would not have got to this conclusion without your help. 

 

Thanks
