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.
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.
