Description

This activity allows you to send an email using the Outlook mail service.

Parameters

Outlook account

Set a value: allows you to select your account from the drop-down list.

Note that due to Outlook restrictions, this option in Studio Pro only displays accounts that were created when Outloook started. If you have opened Outlook and created any account - the mail client must be restarted for Studio Pro to get an updated list of accounts.

Calculate a value: allows you to use a special formula or a special method to determine the account.

Save the previous step result: takes the result of the activity from the previous workflow step as the email client account.

 

Mail to

  1. Set a value: enables you to directly write the email to receive a message.

  2. Save the previous step result: chooses the previous activity result as an email.

  3. Calculate a value: enables you to use available properties and methods to form an email.

If the 'Send copy to sender' option is selected, then the sender of the email message will be added to the blind copy.

 

Sending emails to multiple recipients

This activity allows you to send emails to several recipients at a time. To specify two or more email addresses as recipients, use “;” or “,” as a separator.
