The Email Addresses step specifies which records to use when sending the email(s) and which email addresses to use.
When the button containing this action is within a Record control, an email can be sent only for the current record. If the button containing this action is within a Table control, an email can be sent for each selected record or for all records. Please note that ‘All records’ includes records that may not be currently displayed on the page. For example, if the filtered set includes 50 records but only 10 are currently displayed on the page, selecting this option will send emails for each of the 50 records.

Email address |
An email address can be a simple text string, a substitution variable or a field value. Text string email addresses are used exactly as specified in the Constant field. Substitution variables are placed in the Constant field and are evaluated after the button click at application run-time. When evaluated, a data value is substituted for the substitution variable. See Button Actions - Substitution Variables for further details on how substitution variables are handled. |
Email display name |
The email display name is optional. If nothing is specified, the display name is the same as the email address. Display names can be simple text strings, a substitution variable or a field value. Substitution variables are placed in the Constant field and are evaluated after the button click at application run-time. When evaluated, a data value is substituted for the substitution variable. See Button Actions - Substitution Variables for further details on how substitution variables are handled. |
