l A JSON Record Data List (see the REST API Cookbook and "JSON Record Data List
example" on page82). When the "Retrieve Items" on page533 task is set to output
Records in JSON, it outputs this kind of JSON data.
If the input is JSON, the task performs a REST call to the
/rest/serverengine/workflow/contentcreation/email/{templateId} endpoint on the
Connect Server. For more information see the REST API Cookbook.
Processing
This task loops through each record in a Record Set or through each JSON object in an array.
For each record or JSON object, an HTML Email is generated using that record's or object's
data. The output generated is then sent via an SMTP server with the email address set by the
template.
Note
Content creation may be aborted by a script in a Connect template that raises a fatal error. This
triggers the On Error tab of the Content Creation task. See Designer Script API.
Output
Within the Workflow process, the output to this task is only modified metadata indicating that the
task is complete. It is the Server component that outputs the emails themselves and sends them
to each recipient.
Note
If sending email is not included in the license, the emails will be sent to the sender instead of to the
intended recipients.
