Updates to the Email Object for better workflow communications

Updates to the Email Object for better workflow communications

I have two enhancements that would greatly improve our workflow communications using the email scripting object

 

Currently the Email scripting object has only three properties (To, Subject & Body)

 

It would be great to add an Attachment property most likely an array that could be populated via the script from workspace references to attachements in the system. - Great use would be to allow transmittal of pdf files to a supplier in an RFQ workflow.

 

Second (and not sure if this is possible) - allow for a default return email address (such as a company generic email address) to be the From address rather than the NoReplyAutodesk address.  This would only be used by Script generated emails - the standard workflow email should remain as is. You could define this address in one of two ways.

 

1. Setup in Admin a company default address that can be read via scripting

2. Get the user email address from the user information at the time the script is executed

I would also like to see this not be just "noreply@????", but configurable (at least by scripting) to be any email address we specify.

I have a use case in which an on-demand email script is run for a record and sends to a user and I'd like for that user to be able to respond to the email directly back to the sender.

 

 

Thanks,
