Hi @mynedisanjana 

 

Do you want to send attachments which are added on record?  If yes

 

Use this option:

Or you want a new attachment with the email ?

@mynedisanjana We had the similar requirement where we were supposed to copy a static pdf on an outbound email associated with a specific notification. 

 

1. As a first step, we attached the static file to the Notification (sysevent_email_action) record which is being used for sending the outbound email

2. In second step, we created a business rule on sys_email table as follows.

Here we only trigger this BR if the type changes to send ready and body contains sysparm_notification= <sys_id of the notification>

In the script, we are simply copying the attachment from the notification record to the email record. 

Hope this helps.
