SMaster Is there any way to send an Email with Attachment??
Hi All,
I want to send an email with the selected Attachment from Notes and Attachment related list....
i.e. i have some file inside Notes and Attachment related list.. and i want to select one file out of them.. and want to email that with some template.. please let me kow how can i do that...
Thanks
I think you need to move with custom Visual force page approach,
And need to implement custom functionality to pick Email template and Attachements, As by using Salesforce Standard
salesforce.com/_ui/core/email/author/EmailAuthor functionality will allow you to pick attachment only from documents,
Not from related list attachments.
Please redefine your requirement in more detail way, so I can suggest accordingly

Hi Bala,
My requirement is as follows:
I need a button on the Custom Object Page layout, to send an email in a specified Template with an Attachment. Before sending the mail I need to select one attachment from all attachments that are available inside Notes and Attachment Related list.
Now, in order to achieve this
(1) i have create a Checkbox on the page
(2) Onclick of a detail page button.. i am running the javascript code to make the checkbox as true i.e. checked
(3) Create a workflow, when the checkbox is True i.e. checked and email alert will fire with the selected Email Template.
Now, i am able to send an email with a template but.. i am not able to understand how can i select and relate attachment with it.
Or,
i will have to follow another approach to fulfill the needs...
Please let me know the way of achieving it...
Also, please get the following details:
Custom Object Name is: opportunity_proposals__c
Custom field that contain the email id: SMEs_Email__c
Javascript code i have written to update the checkbox value:
{!requireScript("/soap/ajax/20.0/connection.js")}
{!requireScript("/soap/ajax/20.0/apex.js")}
var temp= new sforce.SObject("opportunity_proposals__c");
temp.Id ="{!opportunity_proposals__c.Id}";
temp.EMAIL_TO_SME__c = 'True';
try
{
sforce.connection.update([temp]);
}
catch(e)
{
alert(e)
}
after that a simple workflow with Email alert action... :)
this is all what i have...
Hey,
If you want to select attachment from related list of notes and attachment , you need to go for Visualforce page ,
Query related attachment and attach to email.
** here we can not use standard sendEmail page , there we can select attachment only from documents
Hope It will help you.
Cheers,
Bala
Hi Bala,
Based on your suggestion... i have tried creating the visualforce page and an apex class... But how can i select one attachment from the visualforce page and send it as an attachment inside mail??? is getting difficult
The Apex class is:
public class testmail
{
ApexPages.StandardController controller;
public opportunity_proposals__c q
{
get;set;
}
String op = ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('id');
public Id oppr
{ get;set; }
public testmail(ApexPages.StandardController ctrl)
{
oppr = ctrl.getRecord().Id;
}
public PageReference emailAtt()
{
Messaging.SingleEmailMessage mail = new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage();
String[] toAddresses = new String[]{'SMaster@gmail.com'};
mail.setToAddresses(toAddresses);
mail.setReplyTo('SMaster@gmail.com');
mail.setSenderDisplayName('CRM Support');
mail.setBccSender(false);
mail.setUseSignature(false);
mail.setTargetObjectId('005Q0000000FR7f');
mail.setTemplateId('00XQ0000000QULj');
mail.saveAsActivity = false;
//Set email file attachments
List<Messaging.Emailfileattachment> fileAttachments = new List<Messaging.Emailfileattachment>();
for (Attachment a : [select Id, Name, Body, BodyLength from Attachment where ParentId = :oppr])
{
// Add to attachment file list
Messaging.Emailfileattachment efa = new Messaging.Emailfileattachment();
efa.setFileName(a.Name);
efa.setBody(a.Body);
fileAttachments.add(efa);
}
mail.setFileAttachments(fileAttachments);
//Send email
Messaging.sendEmail(new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage[] { mail });
return null;
}
}
and the Visualforce page is:
<apex:page standardController="opportunity_proposals__c" extensions="testmail">
<apex:form >
<apex:pageBlock title="Attachments">
<apex:pageBlockButtons >
<apex:commandButton value="Send" action="{!emailAtt}"/>
</apex:pageBlockButtons>
<apex:pageBlockTable value="{!opportunity_proposals__c.Attachments}" var="Att">
<apex:column headerValue="Select">
<apex:inputCheckbox value="{!opportunity_proposals__c.for_sendemailwithattachment__c}"/>
</apex:column>
<apex:column value="{!Att.createddate}"/>
<apex:column value="{!Att.name}"/>
<apex:column value="{!Att.description}"/>
</apex:pageBlockTable>
</apex:pageBlock>
</apex:form>
</apex:page>
in addition to my previous message...

Hi Bala,
The scenario is something like:
I have created an apex class, in which i have created a method to to send an email with attachment .
then i created another visualforce page, where i am showing all the Notes and Attachment from the related list.... and a commandbutton on which clicking an email gets fired with all attachments... lets say if i have 3 files inside the attachment.. all will go out as an attachment with in one mail....
that is working till now...
Now... i need to select an attachment before sending the mail.... and only the selected attachment should go out with in a mail as attachment....
please let me now if i am unable to explain...
Hi Bala,
I was trying to implement this (i.e. sent the selected file as attachment within the email) using the wrapper class.. but unable to do so.. here is the code i am using...
or, please suggest the suitable solution to resolve this issue.....
Apex class:
public class Checkbox_Class
{
public Id oppr { get;set; }
public Checkbox_Class(ApexPages.StandardController ctrl)
{
oppr = ctrl.getRecord().Id;
}
List<Attachmentwrapper> AttachmentList = new List<Attachmentwrapper>();
List<Attachment> selectedAttachments = new List<Attachment>();
public List<Attachmentwrapper> getAttachments()
{
for (Attachment a : [select Id, Name, Body, BodyLength from Attachment where ParentId = :oppr])
{
AttachmentList.add(new Attachmentwrapper(a));
return AttachmentList;
}
}
public PageReference getSelected()
{
Messaging.SingleEmailMessage mail = new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage();
String[] toAddresses = new String[]{'ashish.garg@headstrong.com'};
mail.setToAddresses(toAddresses);
mail.setReplyTo('ashish.garg@headstrong.com');
mail.setSenderDisplayName('CRM Support');
mail.setBccSender(false);
mail.setUseSignature(false);
mail.setTargetObjectId('005Q0000000FR7f');
mail.setTemplateId('00XQ0000000QULj');
mail.saveAsActivity = false;
//selectedAttachments.clear();
for(Attachmentwrapper accwrapper : AttachmentList)
{
if(accwrapper.selected == true)
{
selectedAttachments.add(accwrapper.acc);
Messaging.sendEmail(new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage[] { mail });
}
else
{
return null;
}
}
public List<Attachment> GetSelectedAttachments()
{
if(selectedAttachments.size()>0)
return selectedAttachments;
else
return null;
}
public class Attachmentwrapper
{
public Attachment acc{get; set;}
public Boolean selected {get; set;}
public Attachmentwrapper(Attachment a)
{
acc = a;
selected = false;
}
}
}
yap.... I looked into it,
sorry for delayed response give me some time, will post updated controller later on..
thanks,
Bala
Hi Bala,
i expect you would have looked into the problem... please suggest...
Hi sMaster,
I know this post is very old but am trying to implement something similar to this.Did you succeed & if so can you kindly post your final controller?
Thanks in advance.
My users would like to send an email from a custom object, but they would like to attach an attachment from the list of attachments on the custom object.
Thanks!
