Notification
Notification is a feature that is used by other features (e.g. Workflow Builder) used to send email notifications. Users can configure to add specific property values in the automated emails that are sent out.
Users can invoke the Notification feature through the App Settings panel on the Application Settings page.
New notifications can be created using the + Create Notification button.
New Notification window is displayed.
| Object | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | The object for which the notification is being created. All the properties later used in the notification would be from this object |
| 2 | Title of the notification |
| 3 | Sender email. If left blank then Codeless ONE email address is used to send the email |
| 4 | Target email addresses |
| 5 | Buttons to insert properties of the selected object in relevant controls |
| 6 | Email Subject |
| 7 | Message (email body) |
| 8 | File attachment control |
While configuring a new notification the first step is to select the relevant object. Only the properties of this object would be available to be included in the email.
Secondly we have to give a proper name to the notification being created.
The Insert Property buttons are used to insert relevant properties of the object (selected in first step) in the corresponding controls.
For the email controls users can add Created By or Last Updated By properties.
Multiple emails can be included in a single control, separated by semi-colon.
For the Subject and Message (email body) controls, users can add text along with properties. Almost all properties of the selected object can be added here.
The double curly brackets denote that this is a property (included in the control) and it is not ordinary text.
In the email body, users can provide the desired text for their email along with the relevant properties.
Users can add multiple properties in the email to create the desired notification.
Once completed, the list of notifications is updated with the newly created notification.
The desired notification can now be used while modelling a Workflow, to automate the email sending process.
