Hi All,

 

How can I trigger a mail to a particular distrubtion list group email id, using a workflow?

 

Thanks,

Pradeep

Hello  @pnelli 

 

Please have a look at this article https://help.k2.com/k2studio about sending an email to each member of an AD group to get some insight.

 

Please also have a look on this string of conversations as I feel they are doing what you want to achieve and jut rather in sui generis

Please also have a look at this steps tutorial that uses multiple instances of a sub Workflow.

 

I hope this help solve the issue you are facing


Good day pnelli,


 


You can start by making use of roles: http://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/K2Five/UserGuide/5.3/default.htm#K2-Management-Site/User_Management/Roles.htm


via the role assignment i.e. a role is assigned the task and never a user, therefore, it’s easy to remove/add users to the role across all instances or per instance.


 


You can also create a dynamic role and add users as per normal


Open your destination rule -> Select ‘Plan Per Destination -> All at once’ and click next.


Select ‘Resolve roles and groups to users’ and ‘Create slot per destination’


Very important – Select ‘Keep roles synchronized’


 


After an instance has started and you need to add a user to the destinations, add the user to the role.


The ‘Keep roles synchronized’ option will add the user dynamically, and it will recalculate the slot count as soon as the user logs in. Please note though, there might be a 30 second delay depending on when last the new user logged in.


 


Another option is to assign the work to a single account and manage access to that task via your own custom worklist and role management.


 


Please let me know whether this is of help,


Best regards,


Dumisani


 


Thanks both for responding. I have used roles and added the dristrubtion group to that role. I was unable to add group to the role when i was searching using group email id. I had to resolve the name of the group and add it to the role.

 

Thanks,

Pradeep
