SendEmail Is there a way to insert a Text or HTML Email Template at

The template field in the "Send E-mail" smart service is not an expression-able, you cannot use conditions to assign the template. Instead you could use a gateway (e.g. XOR) to direct the flow to a different send e-mail configured with the corresponding template. Assuming you have 3 languages, your model would need three different send e-mail nodes pointing to different templates; the decision of which one should be trigger would be delegated to the gateway not to the send e-mail activity.

There is a plugin funtion textfromtemplate. The file used as template is variable.

I will try textFromtemplate.

But eduardo, your solution is cumbersome and not flexible and cannot be extended or is not scalable.

What if, our organization has more than 15 to 20 languages? And what if, we decide to add new languages every month?

In that case, I have to go in everytime, add a new Send Email Activity, update my gateway and retest and republish my process model. This is a lot of work. Instead, what if I have a set of templates in the Documents Section and pass them at runtime based on a certain value in a Multiple Constant? This is more dynamic and is scalable.

Hi Shelzle, Can we pass variables to that template (textFromTemplate) at runtime?

Similar to the Email template?

Of course. You create an expression with content like this

Parameters: template_document, data_cdt

= textfromtemplate ( ri!template_document , { "name" , "prize" , "description"} , {ri!data.name, if(isnull(ri!data.prize), "---", fixed ( ri!data.prize, 2 )), substitute(ri!data.description, char(10)})

Your template (a plain text file) looks like:

<p>###name###</p>
<p>###prize###</p>
<p>###description###</p>

Aneeshv I'm interesting a out this topic, please give us the feedback when you find a good solution :)
Thanks

Ok.. Once I test it, will let you know... Shelzle's solution seems to be better.

OK, thanks...

@aneeshv Do you have any news a out this topic? Thanks

No, we haven't tried the Smart Service. Please go ahead and try it yourself.
