Using templates when sending mail

[serqet]

Hi,

In the workflow part, I send an e-mail using the formula below, but only variable names appear in the e-mail. The variable values in the template do not appear, but there is no problem with the variables in the pdf file.

My second question is that the workflow sends this email 2 times in a row, each time?

Thanks.

$attachmentId = ext\pdf\generate(
'Szlemeler', entity\attribute('id'), '5fdf90b38f5836c38', 'test.pdf'
);

$emailId = record\create('Email',
'to', entity\attribute('emailAddress'),
'attachmentsIds', list($attachmentId)
);

// applying email template
ext\email\applyTemplate($emailId, '5fdf91f92471e807e');

ext\email\send($emailId);

Does anyone have an idea about this?

Hello serqet,
When you applying an email template you need to specify the parentType and parentId parameters.
For example:

$attachmentId = ext\pdf\generate( 'Szlemeler', entity\attribute('id'), '5fdf90b38f5836c38', 'test.pdf' );

$emailId = record\create('Email',
'to', entity\attribute('emailAddress'),
'attachmentsIds', list($attachmentId),
[COLOR=#2ecc71]'parentType', 'Szlemeler',
'parentId', id[/COLOR]
);

// applying email template
ext\email\applyTemplate($emailId, '5fdf91f92471e807e');
ext\email\send($emailId);

You have the scheduled workflow that runs as many times as many records are matched by your linked report.
In case it sents emails twice for each recipient each time the workflow is triggered, you need to check whether there are no duplicated records matched by the report.

Maximus Only 1 record appears in the target report and I don't have a similar workflow?

[serqet]

Maximus It seems to run only 1 time in workflow logs. 1 in 5 minutes

I guess because I used the formula with the update target record, it sends 2 duplicate mails. yuri help please.
