Hii All,
I search a lot about email notification but I don't get any satisfied answer. Many questions don't have any answer and some have suggest that "Checked field(Send to event creator) in Email Notification. I did the same but email are not sending please help me out.
I want to send an email using a event when a condition is met in business rule. My situation is following.
- Event: exceed_proposed_time
- Fired by: After new time record redirection
- Email Notification: Exceed Proposed Time
- Send to event creator = checked
- Business Rule: After new time record redirection
- insert = checked
- update = checked
- Script: gs.eventQueue('exceed_proposed_time', current, current.sys_id, "myemail@example.com");
Business rule have met condition: I checked and showing a error message
Event is created: I checked in System Logs -> Events
Email is not sending: Checked my inbox and ServiceNow's "System Mailbox -> outbound -> outbox".
Please let me know where I'm wrong or you need more information.
Thanks-
Macarius

Hi Macarius,
Nice, now we definitely know what the problem is. Now it's a matter of pinpointing what's causing it. I think there is no shortcut here then just go through those steps:
Diagnosing and remedying stuck event processes
You can also try to log in to your affected nodes and do it yourself:
How do I log into a specific node or cancel a job on a node I'm not logged into?
or just contact SNow and they will be able to do it for you.
Cheers
Greg

Thanks Tony for your investigation,
I want to let you know that in my scenario, I have some Users(access level wise) and when end-user(or any other leveled user) exceed the limit of proposed time then System Administration should received a email notification about the same.
Suppose that I have sys_id of System Administration = "123456" and email = "myemail@example.com".
So please let me know that what is the values of EventParam1 and EventParam2 ?

Parm1 and Parm2 are populated by the call to gs.eventQueue
Parm1 = current.sys_id
Parm2 = "myemail@example.com
gs.eventQueue('exceed_proposed_time', current, current.sys_id, "myemail@example.com");

specifying the actual email address is not useful in this context.
the notification requires the sys_id of the record in the sys_user table

Tony,
I did the same. Even I tried to pass sys_id of Admin in Param2 but didn't find any clue.
Note: My Event state = "ready" every time.
I checked this in wiki
3. eventQueue(String, Object, String, String, String)
Queues an event for the event manager.
3.1.1 Input Fields
Parameters:
- Name of the event being queued.
- A GlideRecord object, such as "current".
- An optional parameter, saved with the instance if specified.
- A second optional parameter, saved with the instance if specified.
- An event queue to add the event to.
3.1.2 Example
if (current.operation() != 'insert' && current.comments.changes()) { gs.eventQueue("incident.commented", current, gs.getUserID(), gs.getUserName()); }
Is there any other thing which we are missing?
Or there is any other option to send email notification?

If the Event state = "ready" then probably you have a problem processing events in general.
