How to add "Requested for" in cc in "Notification" activity of workflow

sameekshasa · ‎02-03-2026

I want to send a notification using a workflow. In the "To" field, I have added a distribution list (DL). In the "CC" field, I need to include the "Requested For" user, which will be selected by the user when submitting the form. Could you please suggest how this can be achieved? Do I need to write an email script and reference it in the "To" field as well?

Thanks in advance!

@sameekshasa

you need to use <mail_script> within that notification activity message

Give correct variable name

<mail_script>
	email.addAddress('cc',current.variables.requestedFor.email.toString(),current.variables.requestedFor.name.toString());

</mail_script>
