Hi,
Thanks for the detailed example.
I still receive an error: " Email (2) Record#1: Login denied." Can you help with this?
Hi @apolly - thank you for the helpful write-up on using the email tool with Gmail.
I'm on Alteryx version 2019.3 and I'm using the email batch macro developed by @Claje to send multiple emails to various recipients through Gmail.
The good news is that I've been able to configure the macro to send out emails! I've previously tested it with other files
But unfortunately, the recipients of my emails have attachments that are broken/unusable - see below.
When I open the same files before sending them, or when I send them via normal Gmail process (in individual emails), these files are all good.
How do I go about troubleshooting this? Is this a problem with the macro, the email tool, or something else?
Thank you for your insights.
1) The pdf files I'm sending have all useful content missing. When I open the files, I receive several error messages as follows.
2) The excel file I'm sending won't open and has the following errors:
Hi @apolly - I contacted customer support and have a ticket open (Case #00308391) for this issue in case you're able to follow on your end.
Thanks,
Eugene
A quick update on what Alteryx Support have come back with:
"It seems the issue is in the actual workflow. Unfortunately, Alteryx Support deals with actual product issues, but it is unfortunately, outside our scope to build or troubleshoot custom workflows. As such I would recommend to reach out to @Claje (an Alteryx ACE)."

Hi Can alteryx send emails using secure voltage emails?
Hi @ekarmanov,
We have been able to reproduce the issue and a product defect has been logged.
Currently, we have no ETA for a release of a fix to share. However, in the meantime feel free to use the following workaround. Instead of using a hard coded free text for the body, use the "Use Field" option for the body.
Thanks.
