Email generated letter to specific email address

[sehmbis]

I am pretty new to this system, so any guidance will be much appreciated.

I have created a process where a PDF letter is generated when my form is completed.

Now I would like to email this generated letter to a particular email address.

I am not sure on how to do this.  I did find the Mail Task within Activities sub-header but I am unsure on how to attach the generated letter within this section and how to send this to a specific email address.

I hope you can help.

Thank you

OOTB Email Task doesn't have attachment option. This would need to be done using a custom java class. Are you using Alfresco Process Services or Community Activiti?

If it is Alfresco Process Services, I might have a couple of examples in my repo. see below:

Ciji, many thanks for your advise.  My apologies for coming back to you so late.

I managed to resolve this issue by applying a rest call.

Once I had the content outside of Activiti I was able to use Rhapsody which then enabled me to carry out my required task.
