Email templates in WorkflowGen enable easy, consistent communication.
Creating an HTML Text File and Formatting It
- The first line of the file should be SUBJECT: <your custom subject line>.
- You can have dynamic form data in the email. For the server URL (which will change between instances) use <WF_LINK_ACTIVITY_INST-LAUNCH> or <WF_LINK_ACTIVITY_INST_FORM>.
- Process data can be accessed using: WF_PROCESS_INST_RELDATA_VALUE. <your process dataname>.
For more information, the vendor, WorkflowGen, has additional documentation available on their website. Please note: You will need to use a user name and password to access the documentation. If you have not yet registered, you will need to do so. Registration is free of charge.
