Email current selection with button press

Hi All,

 

I have a use case and unsure where to start. I need to send all current users selection via email when the user hit a button in the app. This can be jsut a text or html email.

The end goal is to pass the selection as filters to Nprinting task ( I can manage this bit). The challenge I have is to create a buttoon that reads all the selections and start an application Automation that sends it to an email address.

Please let me know yoru ideas on how to handle this use case.

Thank you

Eric

Hi @ericdelaqua 

Via the native button you can work with selections, see https://community.qlik.com/t5/Knowledge/Triggering-an-automation-from-a-button-on-a-sheet/ta-p/18528...

In the background we'll create a bookmark that is passed through to the automation as input. 

hope this helps.
Kind regards,
