H Team,

 

Could you please help me in getting a workflow created where workflow could be scheduled on server and email could be shared automatically with the output.

I can scheduled workflow my self. I Just need set up where an email can be created with the attachment.

 

Thanks for your help.

@mmustkee you can use the email tool for this.

1.Use block until done or control containers to pause the workflow until your output file is created.

2.The email tool has two attachment options: either specify a static filename or feed in a file path. Keep in mind that this tool sends one email per record that is fed into. Connection configuration will depend on your organization.

Hi @griffinwelsh 

 

Thanks for your response but I never used email tool and we need to add a message also in email. Could you please create a small workflow by taking any random data where I can put my email address and data and it run successfully.

 

Thanks for your help in advance.

@mmustkee add your message to the body section. You can either write in the free text field or map it to a field from the input anchor. All of the email parameters are like this. I can't build the workflow as you described because your organization's authentication settings will not match mine. You may need support from IT and or your server admin to get the permissions configured for the first time. For more information about this refer to SMTP Configuration of Common Email Providers (alteryx.com)

Hi @griffinwelsh 

 

Thanks for explanation. I know my organization have different setup and will not match to yours. If I have a workflow with body message and text or signature in the email or SMTP connection or server. You can put dummy and I can update mine while scheduling the same. If that's possible.

 

Thanks a lot in advance.
