idm rest api (email)

Nathalie Abel

we are on cloud. I would like to send pdf invoices with idm rest api (email). Can someone help me with that ? I don't know what to write in: pid, mimetype, base64 and xquery

{
  <span class="hljs-attr">"emailMessage": {
    <span class="hljs-attr">"to": "string",
    <span class="hljs-attr">"cc": "string",
    <span class="hljs-attr">"bcc": "string",
    <span class="hljs-attr">"subject": "string",
    <span class="hljs-attr">"body": "string",
    <span class="hljs-attr">"attachments": {
      <span class="hljs-attr">"file": [
        {
          <span class="hljs-attr">"pid": "string",
          <span class="hljs-attr">"filename": "string",
          <span class="hljs-attr">"mimetype": "string",
          <span class="hljs-attr">"base64": "string",
          <span class="hljs-attr">"xquery": "string"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Nathalie - For the email message, you can use "pid", and keep the rest empty, which would email the Document that matches the PID. Typically PID = DocumentType-InternalID-Version-LATEST. IE - Acknowledgement-1234-1-LATEST.

If you are trying to email a document that does not exist in IDM, then you could put in a base64 encoded string, of your document, along with filename and mimetype. This should email the Document from IDM. I have not used this one, and my API's are not working right, so I cannot test and be for certain on this. I still question what Document Type it uploads this document to, but probably the FILE Document Type, if I had to guess.

Lastly, you should be able to use xquery to search for the document you want to send out. You can use the query builder in IDM to help you understand the query more.

Hopefully this helps explain these items.
