Save email as a file once sent

Unknown

I am working on version 6.7.2.64386 of Decisions.

We are sending emails through our own Gmail server via smtp.gmail.com via Port 587

After my flow had executed and the email sent, is there any possibility to save the Outlook item as a file to link it to my claim’s list of documents?

[font=Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]We do not currently support .eml files, but if the email was sent from a Decisions server in a Flow created by a user, then the same data used to populate the Send Email step could be used to create other types of files, for example, a .pdf. Its also possible to dynamically create HTML using that data and converting the result to a .pdf document. HTML can also be used to create Word documents. I have attached a demo project showing one way this might be done. Please [/font][url=https://documentation.decisions.com/docs/exporting-and-importing-overview]import[/url][font=Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif], review, and modify it as you wish.[/font]

Ran the flow, debugger stalled out at Html to Pdf. Doesnt seem like any error in the log. Any idea?

There appears to be an issue with the previous project. I have attached an update project here. Please try this and let us know if you still face issues.

Works now.
Curious what was the error and how was it fixed?

The older project was adding the Flows StartTime in the name of the file generated from the HTML to PDF step. Since the StartTime includes colons, the filename became invalid and the step threw an error as it was unable to generate the file on the system.

Once the StartTime variable was removed, the Filename generated was valid and the Flow ran successfully.
