Email contents of Record without creating PDF

Is there a way to send an email with the contents of a record?  I'm building a service tracking application and would like to be able to email the record to my technicians without them having to open an attachment to view the record.

    You can send the data of that record - not the record itself.

    Hi Patrick, 

    Of course there is the possibility to do that. If you are using a Ninox Cloud database you can do that with the following function:

     

    let myText := 'Task field of the record';
    let myHtml := "<b>'Task field of the record'</b>";
    sendEmail({
    from: myEmail,
    to: text(Client.Email),
    bcc: "myAddress@mail.de",
    subject: "Ninox - Task " + 'Invoice-Nr.' + " from " + 'Rechnungs-Datum',
    text: text(myText),
    html: myText
    });

     

    Best regards, Jörg

    What should go into the section?

     

    from: myEmail,

     

    Should I type in my email address or do I need an API or setting enabled?

    Hi Patrik,

    You can add a line where you set this "myEmail" as the e-mail address of the current user:

     

    let myEmail := userEmail();
    let myText := 'Task field of the record';
    let myHtml := "<b>'Task field of the record'</b>";
    sendEmail({
    from: myEmail,
    to: text(Client.Email),
    bcc: "myAddress@mail.de",
    subject: "Ninox - Task " + 'Invoice-Nr.' + " from " + 'Rechnungs-Datum',
    text: text(myText),
    html: myText
    }); 

    Kind regards, Jörg
