Hi,

you don't write what "log" exactly means in your context. I assume it's a text file and the incoming job of the "Mail send" flow element. In that case you could use a script expression within the Email text property which makes use of the File class and which reads the contents of the log file and returns it as a String object. This of course makes the use of PowerSwitch necessary.

Regards,

Robert

Hi Ken,

a quick and dirty solution would be:

var logFile = new File( job.getPath() );

logFile.open( File.ReadOnly );

var contents = logFile.read();

logFile.close();

contents

Paste these five lines of code into the "Script expression" type property editor of the "Message text" property of your "Mail send" flow element.

Robert
