How to get "Email body" to the "comments"

Hi everyone Im trying to use an "Inbound Email Action" to get what the user writes on the "Email body" to the "comments" I have been trying to use the "email.body_text" but for some reason it just does not work, it is actually breaking the code ... can anyone help with this?

Code:

		if (email.subject.indexOf("reject") >= 0) {

			current.comments = 'Rejection Cause: ' + email.body_text;
			current.active = false;
			msgArray.push(displayValue);
			current.u_rejected = true;
			current.update();
		}
		if (email.subject.indexOf("approve") >= 0) {
			current.u_approved = true;
			msgArray.push(displayValue);
			current.update();
		}

Does your action have create/write access to the table it is targeting?

Yes, could the problem be that the "Additional comments" are "Readonly" ?

Hi @F_bio Santos ,

If you are referring to Additional Comments , they are stored in sys_journal_field , hence if you are updating comments for a RITM or Incident you might want to first update it in sys_journal_field.

Please mark helpful/correct if my response helped you.
