sending mail through task

[suresh.t...@gmail.com]

Hi,
I want to implement sending mail as one task in business process. As per my understanding we need to use send task for this functionality.

I have seen in the user guide but we don't have content in user guide for passing to address,subject, message through send task.

Please provide me example with sending task and it should pass to, subject ,message from this task or any alternative way.

regards,
suresh

Hi Suresh,

a "Send Task" is used to send a message which can be done by calling java delegate code (see http://docs.camunda.org/latest/api-references/bpmn20/#tasks-send-task).

So, if you want to send an email you have to implement it by your own!

Cheers,

Roman

Hi Suresh,

There is no semantic difference between the send and service task for the bpm engine.
