Hi friends,

    I am working with work flow engine for sometimes,in that i want to send the mail to user for participant workflow approval process.

    For that  i found some inbuilt mail services in OSGI configuration console.

    1.Day CQ Workflow Email Notification Service - By using this service  i can get notification for participant user in (CQ server Inbox).

    But want to the get the mail directly to the user [img]err.JPG[/img]server inbox not cq5 inbox how it can be achieve ????

    2.Day CQ mail service it contains basic SMTP configuration details.I want to know that for what purpose we should go for this OSGI service???

 

Thanks in advance

create a process step to send emails prior to the participant step with its handler advance set to true.

You can create a custom workflow step that sends email messages to email boxes that you want - not only a CQ inbox. For details -- see:

You build a custom workflow step as a OSGi bundle (as explained in the above link.) You can add business logic in the Java logic  to meet your business needs. This offers a lot of flexibility when building Workflows that use email messages.

Thanks scott.

But my question is "In participant step component there is a option available  email notify when assign the participant from user list.

That notify will work for CQ Inbox but not for mail inbox ?

Whether its possible to get that workflow notification in mail inbox with cq link when the user clicks that link its lands upto cq inbox page from that user can complete the workflow or deglate or whatever he can do ??

Have a look to this screen shot
