Sample For Sending Email From CX-Supervisor

Introduction

This is a sample application showing how to send an email from CX-Supervisor. It uses VBScript as based on the article How To Send An Email Alert From A PC. The sample project requires CX-Supervisor version 4.0 or later, and uses the "EmailText()" script function.

Example

The attached example allows you to enter the email address, subject and body text and then send the email. The fields for cc, bcc and Attachments are optional, and can should be left blank if not used.

Configure your email server in the Developer from the Project menu, Runtime Settings->Email Settings:

Your SMTP server address (for example SMTP.gmail.com if using gmail smtp server)
The User for your email account name
The password for you email account. This is so the EmailText() script can log in to your email account to send the mail.

Fig. View of example

The following code is used to send the email message.

bSuccess = EmailText(Recipient, Subject, BodyText, cc, bcc, Attachments)

If you are using gmail SMTP server then you may get error "The message could not be sent to the SMTP server. The transport error code was 0x80040217.". For secure accounts you can create a unique application password to use for this service. For more info about configuring your gmail account to use "App Passwords" see Google Account: Sign in with App passwords and create a 'custom' password for this script.
