Regarding the user lookup, in the set variable action, you can click on the ellipsis next to the Field and select Email Address.
Regarding sending an email to an AD group, you will need to perform an LDAP query to get all the members of this group and send an email to all the members.
Hope this helps
Hi Caroline,
Thank you very much for your help!
This part really helps me: "Regarding the user lookup, in the set variable action, you can click on the ellipsis next to the Field and select Email Address." That is a great hint. Thank you.
Oops. "Regarding sending an email to an AD group, you will need to perform an LDAP query to get all the members of this group and send an email to all the members." Is such a workaround really necessary? Is it not possible to use the AD group in the To-Field of a notification? For SharePoint-groups it works.
Have a nice day and in any case thank you.
Andy
Hi Andy,
You're welcome
You can use an AD group in the "To" field of a notification but it will send an email to the email address of the AD group and not to the email address of all the members of the AD group. You can try and check the recipient of the sent email.
If you need help to implement the workaround, don't hesitate.
Have a nice day,
Caroline
Hi Caroline,
it is clear for me now. Thank you for the excellent explanation.
I think I am able to implement the workaround myself. If not I will not hesitate to ask.
Thank you sooooooo much!
Andy
Great
I'm glad that I could help you
