Mail Settings for Alert

mr_lampert — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Hello Community,

I want to send an Mail, if the Conditition of an Alert is ScriptErrorCount > 0. So I set the correct Adress and Port from my Server in the Mail Settings from the User Preferences. Works perfectly on my local machine.

Now here is the problem: if the job is done through the QMC, the system can not send the mail. That is because the Mail Settings are only User Preferences. There are no longer available if the job is done with the QMC.

So the question is: how can a specific alarm be sent via the QMC?

Any Ideas?

Greetings fom Germany

Hi David,

I assume you are using the Qlik Management Console for the scheduling.

If Yes then you need to do the mail settings in QMC under "Mail Server".

Go to -> QMC-> System-> Setup-> Mail Server.

Hi Kaushik,

almost. I want to sent an Mail with the alert function if a condition is true. Is this still possible if the job is executed with the QMC?

Regards,

David

Hi,

It wont be possible unless you have publisher or Nprinting.

Unfortunately not. Only QV and the QMC.

Then I solve that in the script. For Example:

If ScriptErrorCount > 0 Then
    EXECUTE('VB Script for Mail')
ENDIF
