Hello Everyone,

 

Do you know how to attach a CSV file calculated on the workflow to an email or alert activity?

I have tried an approach that was suggested here via attachments on the delivery but I have the bellow error.

I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Hi @dimitrischatzos,

Use the delivery activity from the Action tab, something like the example below, and place the JavaScript in the Script tab within the delivery activity.

 



delivery.attachment.add( <attachment compressMode="print" filterActive="false" label="my label" nameScriptActive="false" type="normal" upload="false"> <name>{vars.filename}</name> </attachment>) delivery.hasAttachments = true

 Thanks

Hi @dimitrischatzos ,

In Delivery's script tab, paste the below script and run it.

delivery.attachment.add( <attachment compressMode="print" filterActive="false" label="my label" nameScriptActive="false" type="normal" upload="false"> <name>{vars.filename}</name> </attachment>); delivery.hasAttachments = true

    @dimitrischatzos , sometimes it does depends on the size of the attachment. So to check it, Just try to export only 4 or 5 rows in it and check whether you're able to send the file as attachment.


    Hello,

    The solution worked in the end when I changed the routing from mid-sorce instance to internal email delivery.

     

    A couple of things were not so clear in the explanation:

    The extraction activity should have this format on the naming convention of the file:  <%= vars.filename %>yourfilename.csv

     

    and then the code as described above.

     

    delivery.attachment.add(
    <attachment compressMode="print" filterActive="false" label="my label"
    nameScriptActive="false" type="normal" upload="false">
    <name>{vars.filename}</name>
    </attachment>)
    delivery.hasAttachments = true
