ATF 'Validate Outbound Email' and document ID

[Michal_Ziemba]

I made an ATF test where I submit the incident with a Record Producer and use the 'Validate Outbound Email Generated by Notification' test to see if the notification has been sent to the user. As a Source Notification I take document_id submitted from the Record Producer. Even I set the 3 minutes timeout the test is failing.

As an alternative, I used the 'Validate Outbound Email' test, filtered out its creation on or after a minute ago and wanted to check the Subject or body if it contains the incident number, but cannot use the  document_id submitted from the Record Producer from previous steps - it is greyed out. 

Have you had this test working in your environment?

Hi Michal,

the outbound email step times out after two minutes by default. so on sys_email table the field which stores the target record's sys_is id Instance which is document ID

can you try to use one more step of open existing record and open the record with sys_id of the submitted record producer

now in the outbound email try to use the output of the Open existing record as input

Note: I am able to select the Output of Record Producer

Mark ✅ Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
Thanks

Hi Ankur, 

I cannot use the output from the 'Open an existing record' step. 

I can see in you screenshot you used a target field. It worked for me as well. 

Thank you
