Custom Action to send email at the end of a journey with a third party system

[Nick_2024]

Hi, 

is it possible to create a custom action (a POST request to trigger a service that sends email via SMTP) that can then use a email template created in Adobe Journey Optimizer? 

For example, sending in the body of the request the email template itself?

It sounds complex actually.

Thanks

@Nick_2024 As of now AJO allows to access the content templates via REST API. It's not possible to include the email template itself in the custom action.

Are there specific permissions to retrieve this content via API? i can edit the templates in aep interface but with the api i have this error: 

  "type": "https://ns.adobe.com/aep/errors/CJMMAS-1095-403",

  "title": "You do not have permission to manage content or access this template. Please contact your administrator to update your permissions.",

@Nick_2024, Check if you have Manage Library Items permission.
