Send email

When to use this Flow type

In Etlworks, it is possible to send an email notification when the Flow has been automatically executed by the Scheduler.

The Send Email Flow is a dedicated Flow type that can be used on its own or as part of a nested Flow within a pipeline.

Step 1. Create an Outbound Email Connection.

Step 2. Create a Send Email Flow

Go to the Flows window, click +, and type send email in the Select Flow Type box. Choose Send Email as the Flow type.

Step 3: Select the Outbound Email Connection created in step 1.

Step 4. Configure Email Parameters

Go to the Parameters tab and enter the email settings. These fields override the connection-level settings and most are optional:

From: Sender’s email address
To: Recipient email address(es)
Cc: CC email address(es)
Bcc: BCC email address(es)
Subject: Email subject line
Message: Email body; supports HTML formatting
Header: Optional header to be added before the message body
Folder: Name of the folder on the mail server where the message should be copied
File: Full path to the file to attach. You case use {tokens}, for example {app.data} as a part of file name. You can also use wildcards (e.g., *.csv) to attach multiple files

Error Handling Options

On Exception: By default, errors stop the Flow. Enable Ignore to allow the Flow to continue even if an error occurs. Read how to configure the Flow to ignore all or specific exceptions.
Exception Mask: Enter part or all of an exception message to ignore specific errors. This only applies when Ignore On Exception is enabled.
Execute if Error: If selected, the Flow sends the email only when an error occurs—useful for sending failure notifications or reports.
