Customized content in workflow email notification

Avatar

Level 2

Hi, 

I have a requirement to have the following information in the email notification that is sent on a Workflow Step (Eg. Email sent by "Review/Validate Step" if the "notify using email" checked)

a) Page's Title (Page is the payload in the workflow)

b) Page's custom property which is in jcr:content node 

We currently use a customized version of the default template (/etc/workflow/notification/email/default/en.txt), but not sure how to get access to the above information required using the ${..} variables mentioned in the documentation - (Section "Customizing Email Templates for Workflow Notification" in http://wem.help.adobe.com/enterprise/en_US/10-0/wem/administering/notification.html).

Thanks!

As Sham suggested -- create a custom workflow step that sends email. See this AEM article:

there is no variable exposed for the value you are looking & hence can't retrieve.    As an aletrnative call custom process to send out email.

Hi Shan,

As suggested create a custom workflow step that sends email, and from there you can set properties.

You can use the following article to send email notification to particular members.
