EMAILWRITER endpoint

The Email Writer endpoint replaces the SMTP Writer endpoint.

In Business Integration Solutions, use the EMAILWRITER endpoint to write email messages to configured recipients.

Usage

Use this endpoint to send messages using the built-in mail capabilities of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

Concept

To relay messages via email, add at least one email account.

This endpoint works best with the following activities:

• XML To HTML Translator activity: provides messages in HTML or plain text format.

• Attachment Generator activity: attaches standard Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central reports in PDF, Microsoft Word, or Microsoft Excel formats.

Note

Email accounts must be configured before testing or demoing notifications.
