Multiple Email attacmemts depending on the input

Saravanan13

Hello all,

 

I am looking to send emails with attachment details as shown below. There should be only email send for each CUST ids. The Email attachment  example is also shown below.

The number of attachments for each account should be dynamic. Because we are not sure about maximum limits of attachments for each account.

 

Can anyone help me configure the Email tool according to my requirement. I tried using summarize tool to group cust ID and concatenate filename and then separated as columns and added each column in email tool but getting error since some of the columns will be null depending on the number of attachment.

 

 

Filenamecust ID
\\Desktop\file\Input\John123456
\\Desktop\file\Input\Mark44444
\\Desktop\file\Input\David123456
\\Desktop\file\Input\Peter55555
\\Desktop\file\Input\Ali123456
\\Desktop\file\Input\Saina123456

Hi, @binuacs 

 

What is the Role of basic Table tool in your macro ?

@flying008 I simply used the table tool if the user want to display some thing on the body of the email, it is not needed to send the attachments
