How to attach a PDF file within an email
Hello guys...
I am trying to convert a section into PDF using the activity pxCreatePDF and then attaching it into an email but I am struggling with the activity AttachConvertedPDF which asks me the following items:
InsHandle
Note
Category
strFileSource
strFileName
Someone could help me with what I have to provide in each items above?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
To answer your question, the parameters are as follows:
- InsHandle - The handle of the work object the file is being attached to.
- Note - A note (typically displayed along with the attachment on the work obejct).
- Category - The attachment category.
- strFileSource - The stream of the file being attached.
- strFileName - The name of the file being attached.
For an example of how this activity is used you can review the Work-.ConvertAttachmentToPDF flow action. rule.
That being said, it looks like this activity just attaches a file to a work object, which pxCreatePDF can do for you as it creates the PDF.
Hope this helps!
