Possibility to send as an email attachment Xml (Current version) and PDF (Previous version) from upl

Hi,

I have a requirement where Output PDFs coming from Infor M3 are stored in IDM. And the xmls of that data are stored through an ION workflow in IDM under same document type.

Is it possible to read this uploaded xmls and pdfs in IDM and send an email attachment with Xml uploaded (Current version) and PDF uploaded (Previous version).

What are the possibilities here?

Thanks

Hello! You will either want to email the documents individually, using the /email call.

Or you will want to use the /templates/assemble calls to combine two documents into one, and then email that final document.

Hopefully this helps!

Hi Brandon,

I have tried using the assemble API's to merge one or more templates. But this doesn't update the document in the current version of IDM for us to send an email.

But is it possible to send multiple files as attachment using the email API?

I would Think that would create a whole new document? Based on the JSON template for the emailMessage call, it does appear that it accepts multiple files, signified by the "file": [ line. Using the below example, I was able to send an email with multiple Attachments, so you should be able to use that option.

{
"emailMessage": {
"to": "string",
"cc": "string",
"bcc": "string",
"subject": "string",
"body": "string",
"attachments": {
"file": [
{
"pid": "string",
"filename": "string",
"mimetype": "string",
"base64": "string",
"xquery": "string"
},

        {
"pid": "string",
"filename": "string",
"mimetype": "string",
"base64": "string",
"xquery": "string"
}

] } } }
