E-mail Gmail

Hi !

Is it possible to automate or send an email with a button but without going through the default Ninox system?

I would like to be able to send emails from Gmail webmail because I prefer to use my company's smtp (I work alone, I cannot subscribe to the Enterprise offer).

I would like to know if there is a way to take the text and layout (with bullets, bold texts etc.) from a formula field and then open it in the Gmail webmail. Maybe with a specific link.

The formula field contains all the information I need to email. Currently I'm copying the formula field and then pasting the content (formatted text) into Gmail.

This method works but I'm trying to save some time by having a button that takes care of opening a Gmail page and then inserting the text in it so that I only have to send it.

Thanks for your help !

    Hi Sébastien 

    I had A similar situation and created A button to send the mail through the standard mailing app (in which your Gmail account is the standard setting). Here is the formula I used:

    openURL("mailto:" + 'Mailadres(sen)' + "?subject=" + Projecten.Projectnaam + ": " +
"bestelling" +
" " +
'Bestelnr.' +
"&" +
"body=" +
"Beste " +
Aanspreking +
", " +
html("<br>") +
html(Body))

    Check the openurl formula: https://docs.ninox.com/en/script/function-overview/functions/openurl

     

    Hope this helps. Alternatively you could use Make.com to create A workflow between Ninox and Gmail.
