Let\u2019s create a custom workflow. If you are new to custom workflow assemblies then please refer to our previous article to create a custom workflow<\/a>. Create a class library project and add the required assemblies to your project. Let\u2019s rename our class file to SendEmailWithAttachement and use the following code:<\/p>\n namespace EmailAttachment<\/p>\n {<\/p>\n public class SendEmailWithAttachement : CodeActivity<\/p>\n {<\/p>\n \/\/define output variable<\/p>\n [Input(“SourceEmail”)]<\/p>\n [ReferenceTarget(“email”)]<\/p>\n public InArgument<EntityReference> SourceEmail { get; set; }<\/p>\n protected override void Execute(CodeActivityContext executionContext)<\/p>\n {<\/p>\n \/\/ Get workflow context<\/p>\n IWorkflowContext context = executionContext.GetExtension<IWorkflowContext>();<\/p>\n \/\/Create service factory<\/p>\n IOrganizationServiceFactory serviceFactory =\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 executionContext.GetExtension<IOrganizationServiceFactory>();<\/p>\n \/\/ Create Organization service<\/p>\n IOrganizationService service = serviceFactory.CreateOrganizationService(context.UserId);<\/p>\n AddAttachmentToEmailRecord(service, context.PrimaryEntityId, SourceEmail.Get<EntityReference>(executionContext));<\/p>\n }<\/p>\n private void AddAttachmentToEmailRecord(IOrganizationService service, Guid SourceAccountID, EntityReference SourceEmailID)<\/p>\n {<\/p>\n \/\/create email object<\/p>\n Entity _ResultEntity = service.Retrieve(“email”, SourceEmailID.Id, new ColumnSet(true));<\/p>\n QueryExpression _QueryNotes = new QueryExpression(“annotation”);<\/p>\n _QueryNotes.ColumnSet = new ColumnSet(new string[] { “subject”, “mimetype”, “filename”, “documentbody” });<\/p>\n _QueryNotes.Criteria = new FilterExpression();<\/p>\n _QueryNotes.Criteria.FilterOperator = LogicalOperator.And;<\/p>\n _QueryNotes.Criteria.AddCondition(new ConditionExpression(“objectid”, ConditionOperator.Equal, SourceAccountID));<\/p>\n EntityCollection _MimeCollection = service.RetrieveMultiple(_QueryNotes);<\/p>\n if (_MimeCollection.Entities.Count > 0)<\/p>\n {\u00a0 \/\/we need to fetch first attachment<\/p>\n Entity _NotesAttachment = _MimeCollection.Entities.First();<\/p>\n \/\/Create email attachment<\/p>\n Entity _EmailAttachment = new Entity(“activitymimeattachment”);<\/p>\n if (_NotesAttachment.Contains(“subject”))<\/p>\n _EmailAttachment[“subject”] = _NotesAttachment.GetAttributeValue<string>(“subject”);<\/p>\n _EmailAttachment[“objectid”] = new EntityReference(“email”, _ResultEntity.Id);<\/p>\n _EmailAttachment[“objecttypecode”] = “email”;<\/p>\n if (_NotesAttachment.Contains(“filename”))<\/p>\n _EmailAttachment[“filename”] = _NotesAttachment.GetAttributeValue<string>(“filename”);<\/p>\n if (_NotesAttachment.Contains(“documentbody”))<\/p>\n _EmailAttachment[“body”] = _NotesAttachment.GetAttributeValue<string>(“documentbody”);<\/p>\n if (_NotesAttachment.Contains(“mimetype”))<\/p>\n _EmailAttachment[“mimetype”] = _NotesAttachment.GetAttributeValue<string>(“mimetype”);<\/p>\n service.Create(_EmailAttachment);<\/p>\n }<\/p>\n \/\/ Sending email<\/p>\n SendEmailRequest SendEmail = new SendEmailRequest();<\/p>\n SendEmail.EmailId = _ResultEntity.Id;<\/p>\n SendEmail.TrackingToken = “”;<\/p>\n SendEmail.IssueSend = true;<\/p>\n SendEmailResponse res = (SendEmailResponse)service.Execute(SendEmail);<\/p>\n }<\/p>\n }<\/p>\n }<\/p>\n Build and register your assembly using plug-in registration tool. Now we need to create our workflow to use our custom assembly step.<\/p>\n Navigate to Settings->Process to create new process. Select Account in entity drop down and workflow in category.<\/p>\n . Now follow below steps to configure workflow<\/p>\n Click on Set Properties button to set input variable like below<\/p>\n Save and Activate workflow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If you are looking for sending email with an entity record attachment from Notes then this article is going to help you to implement this requirement.
