Configuring Templates for Automatic IaaS Emails
You can configure the templates for automatic notification emails sent to machine owners by the IaaS
service about events involving their machines.
The events that trigger these notifications include, for example, the expiration or approaching expiration of
archive periods and virtual machine leases.
Tenant administrators can enable or disable IaaS email notifications for machine owners, and machine
owners can choose to receive or not receive email notifications. Anyone with access to the
directory \Templates under the vRealize Automation server install directory (typically %SystemDrive
%\Program Files x86\VMware\vCAC\Server) can configure the templates for these email notifications.
Email Template Object Reference
You can add email template objects to automatic email templates to return information about URIs,
machines, blueprints, costs, and requests.
You can use the following email template objects to return information to automatic email templates.

The WebsiteURIItems object returns the URL of the Items tab on the vRealize Automation console, for
example https://vcac.mycompany.com/shell-ui-app/org/mytenant/#csp.catalog.item.list.
To use this object to provide a link to the My Items page in the console, consider the following sample
lines.
