AyushKhandelwal9 Dynamically Attach the file with VF email Template
I want to send the email to a user of my org whenever a case record is marked as closed. I want to add the recent file as attachment with the case. I have a VF email template which I want to use to send the emails.
We have an option to do this via apex(SingleEmailMessage) but I do not want to add user email as toAddress(). It might be counted as the daily email limit.
I have created a VF component to add the attachment but the attachment is not coming in readable format. VF is not rendering EncodingUtil.base64Encode(cv.VersionData) in readable format in attachment.
I have tried to use toString() method as well but it only works if the file contains text else it will throw an error (blob is not a valid utf-8 string).
Please help me with this issue

Please try with below :
Messaging.SingleEmailMessage email = new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage(); email.setTargetObjectId(caseOwnerId); // Set the recipient's user ID or another valid ID email.setSaveAsActivity(false); // Prevent the email from being saved as an activity email.setTemplateId(emailTemplateId); // Set the ID of your VF email template Messaging.EmailFileAttachment attachment = new Messaging.EmailFileAttachment(); attachment.setBody(fileContent); // Set the binary content of the file attachment.setFileName(fileName); // Set the desired name of the attachment email.setFileAttachments(new List<Messaging.EmailFileAttachment>{ attachment }); Messaging.sendEmail(new List<Messaging.Email> { email });Make sure to replace caseOwnerId with the appropriate user ID, emailTemplateId with the ID of your VF email template, fileContent with the binary content of the file, and fileName with the desired name of the attachment.By using this approach, you can send an email with an attachment without directly specifying the recipient's email address in toAddress().
Hope this helps !
Thank you.
