Sending Email By AEM

[Tushar_Kar]

Hi,

I have a requirement for sending a Mail from AEM using email templates. I have to hit a aem servlet from external server with required parameters and then construct the email and using aem mail templates and cq mail service shoot the mail. Could anyone please help me with it.

Here is a community article that shows how to send email using the MessageGateway API:

https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-6-1/javadoc/com/day/cq/mailer/MessageGateway.html

Article: 

https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/creating-custom-aem-workflow-steps.html

The email is sent as part of a custom workflow. Also - its only a text based email - it does not use a template. 

See this older community thread for good information about sending with a template:

I'm a big fan of the ACS Commons Email API (link below).

You can supply an email template and pass in key/value pairs to replace tokens within the template.

Create a custom sling servlet to handle the HTTP POST/GET operation. For information on creating sling servlets for AEM - see:

See this older community thread for details on email/templates:

Are you following the code from the 1st link:

http://adobe-consulting-services.github.io/acs-aem-commons/features/email-api.html

[Tushar_Kar]

Yes I am following that, as it matched my requirement of sending a mail using a template.

Did you install the ACS Commons package from here

Try to use HtmlEmail.class .

I hope this code will help you.

    MessageGateway<HtmlEmail> messageGateway = messageGatewayService.getGateway(HtmlEmail.class);
                HtmlEmail email = new HtmlEmail();
                email = mailTemplate.getEmail(StrLookup.mapLookup(emailProperties), HtmlEmail.class);
                List<InternetAddress> emailRecipients = new ArrayList<InternetAddress>();
                emailRecipients.add(new InternetAddress(request.getParameter("email")));
                email.setTo(emailRecipients);
                messageGateway.send(email);

No I didn't take this package, in my package it had all the java code for sending email

[Tushar_Kar]

I am using this URL for the package

https://github.com/Adobe-Consulting-Services/acs-aem-commons

[Tushar_Kar]

What is the "emailProperties" , is it a MAP containing all the params. Also I have used HtmlEmail.class, still it gives the same error

Yes, it's my map parameters.

I got values from Front end.
