Email alert with unique attachment

To cut to the chase I'm trying to create a trigger that will send an email alert when the stage is changed. Seems easy enough, but the catch is that a different attachment has to be send with each email alert. The attachment would correspond to the account and would be found in Notes & Attachments. I have no prior experience writing apex and was wondering if anyone could help. 


Thanks in advance

Hi,

 

You can make of the below code in your trigger/class:

 

For the attachment:

 

Messaging.EmailFileAttachment efa = new Messaging.EmailFileAttachment();
efa.setFileName('attachment.pdf');
 efa.setBody(b);

 

 For sending mail:

 

Messaging.SingleEmailMessage mail = new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage(); 
    String[] toAddresses = new String[] {'bhuvana.sbh@wipro.com','subramaniyanarc@gmail.com'};     
               mail.setSenderDisplayName('Salesforce Support');
               mail.setBccSender(false);
               mail.setTargetObjectId(Id);
               mail.setTemplateId('............'');
               mail.setsaveAsActivity(false);
               mail.setToAddresses(toAddresses );
              mail.setFileAttachments(new Messaging.EmailFileAttachment[] {efa}); // adding attachment to email
               Messaging.sendEmail(new Messaging.Email[] { mail });

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks
