Dynamic Email Recipients

Dynamic Email Recipients

Use workflow parameters and variables to dynamically define email recipients.
When you configure recipients in the email properties, use the
Dynamic Recipients
tab to select workflow parameters and variables that define user and group recipients. You cannot type a parameter or variable name in the address fields.
The following table describes the types of parameters and variables that you can use to define dynamic recipients:
Parameter or Variable Type
Description
Workflow parameters
Use a string workflow parameter to define the user or group name in a parameter file when you run the workflow.
System workflow variables
Use the UserName system workflow variable to send an email to the user that runs the workflow.
User-defined workflow variables
Use a user-defined string workflow variable to dynamically assign a user or group name using an Assignment task in the workflow.
When you define a user or group name in a parameter file or in an Assignment task, enter a single user or group name for the value. Use the following syntax for the value:
<security domain name>\<user login name or group name>
For example, enter
Native\Developers
to specify the Developers group in the native security domain.
If you do not specify a security domain name, the Data Integration Service uses the native security domain. The Data Integration Service first attempts to find the specified name in the list of groups. If the name is not a group, the service then attempts to find the name in the list of users.
