Question
Any Process API to download pdf/word template and attach in an email to be send out ?
Hi All - I am looking for the best option or Process API which can be used in an utility to automatically download a word template or pdf document and attaching to workobject/email something like MSOGenerateExcelFile &SendSimpleEmail combination activity. Thank you in advance!
Thank you Santanu!! Sorry for using the word 'download' and confusing you, I meant I have few MS word and few PDF templates - uploaded in R-F-B instanaces. I am looking for best way to attach that in an email and send automatically during flow prcoessing without any human intervention. I am planning to use something like AttachContent smart shape + custom version of SendSimpleEmail activity as utility, if there is no OOTB API.
Accepted Solution

Yes Shantanu. I tried Attach Content and SendEmail smartshapes in the flow and it worked as exected without any customization.
