Add info to subject with Email Script in Email Client Template (email action on a Change record)

[Dorian MOREL]

Hello there,

I am trying to run an email script to add the current month to the subject, but it won't work.

Any idea why ?
I'm calling my email script in the HTML field of the Email Client Template. It should be running when a user wants to send an Email with the email feature on a Change record.

If it is impossible with this method, is there any workaround to achieve what I want to do ? 

Thank you in advance.
Dorian

Hi @Dorian MOREL ,

Try this:

    var months = ["Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"];

    var gdt = new GlideDateTime();              //November
    var current_month = gdt.getMonth();                   // returns number

    email.setSubject("Test Subject : " + months[current_month - 1]);

Thanks

Anand

Hi @Dorian MOREL - You would get the current email subject with email.getSubject() With your code, something like this should work:

 var months = ["JANVIER", "FEVRIER", "MARS", "AVRIL", "MAI", "JUIN", "JUILLET", "AOUT", "SEPTEMBRE",
     "OCTOBRE", "NOVEMBRE", "DECEMBRE"
 ];
 var nb_month = ["1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "11", "12"];

 var gdt = new GlideDateTime();
 var month = gdt.getMonth().toString();

email.setSubject(email.getSubject() + " " + months[nb_month.indexOf(month)].toString());

Keep in mind that you can get the current month name from GlideDate if you want to skip the mapping:

var date = new GlideDate();
var month = date.getByFormat("MMMM");
