Hi Aswini,

I think I've accomplished what you are trying to do. When one of my users creates and an advanced workflow it notifies members of a different swimlane that some tasks will be coming their way. I've done this two ways, from the task-asign and from within the transition itself. I'd be happy to share. From your post though I cannot tell if you are referring to am advanced workflow or a simple workflow.

Hi jarett,

I have created an advanced workflow and I am trying to send an email notification to a list of reviewers once a document is uploaded. I am using this as an email template (a Freemarker template) when I send the mail. Unfortunately, "workflow.assigned Tasks" is not recognised when the email is being sent.

Any ideas on this please.
