How to add users from CC to watchlist?

[Dawid2]

Hello,

I am looking to implement functionality that will add CC'd users from email to watchlist automatically. I've found couple of topics here and used following code. While it works fine, it also adds users from "To" field of the email (so in my case our instance email address). Is it possible to limit this so only CC'd users are added and not users from "To" field?

//populate watchlist from cc filed

var wList = current.watch_list;
var rarray = email.recipients_array;
var instanceEmail = gs.getProperty('glide.email.user');

for (var i = 0; i < rarray.length; i++) {
var recipient = rarray[i];
var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
gr.addQuery('email', recipient);
gr.query();
if (gr.next()) {
// It's a user
if(wList != "") {
wList = (wList + "," + gr.sys_id);
} else {
wList = gr.sys_id;
}
} else {
//It's not a user either...so just add the address to the list...except instance email address
if (recipient != instanceEmail) {
if(wList != "") {
wList = (wList + "," + recipient);
} else {
wList = recipient;
}
}
}

}
//}

current.watch_list = wList;

What happens when you just try

current.watch_list +=email.copied;

or

current.watch_list = current.watch_list  + ',' +email.copied;

Thanks

Wow. I can't even believe it was THAT SIMPLE. Thank you Vignesh!

Hi Vignesh,

I hope you're doing well.

Do I create an inbound email action in order to add CC'ed users to the watch list with the code you have provided? I'm brand new on the platform so I would appreciate your expertise.

Thanks,

Hi preet,

You can update the existing actions to get this working.
