Configuring email account in PDI

[mrakeshchv]

Hi All, 

I am trying to learn on notifications and part of it was creating inbound email actions. But there was no email account configured in PDI. can anyone please help on how i can configure an email account.

I have seen at places that its not possible to send and receive emails. In that case, please let me what can we give for username and password if i am configuring as per the screenshot in case if i am working in a real time project , i want to know what needs to be given in these places.

Thanks in Advance

Hi there,

On PDIs indeed email accounts are not configured anymore. Though you can still add your own account, for example if you have your own POP3 account or something. There's also not much to explain, it's similar like configuring your email on outlook, on your iPhone, etcetera.

For example this is what I've setup on my PDI, works fine.
