To create a new mail definition

  1. In the Manager, select the IT Shop > Basic configuration data > Mail templates category.

    The result list shows all the mail templates that can be used for IT Shop requests.

  1. Select a mail template in the result list and run the Change main data task.

  2. In the result list, select the language for the mail definition in the Language menu.

    All active languages are shown. To use another language, in the Designer, enable the corresponding countries. For more information, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

Using base object properties

In the subject line and body text of a mail definition, you can use all properties of the object entered under Base object. You can also use the object properties that are referenced by foreign key relation.

To access properties use dollar notation. For more information, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

Example:

An IT Shop requester should receive email notification about the status of the request.

The generated email notification could look like the following, for example, once it has been formatted.

Use of hyperlinks to the Web Portal

You can add hyperlinks to the Web Portal in the mail text of a mail definition. If the recipient clicks on the hyperlink in the email, the Web Portal opens on that web page and further actions can be carried out. In the default version, this method is implemented for IT Shop requests.

Prerequisites for using this method

  • The QER | WebPortal | BaseURL configuration parameter is enabled and contains the URL to the API Server. You edit the configuration parameter in the Designer.

    http://<server name>/<application>

    with:

    <server name> = name of server

    <application> = path to the API Server installation directory

To add a hyperlink to the Web Portal in the mail text

  1. Click the position in the mail text of the mail definition where you want to insert a hyperlink.

  2. Open the Hyperlink context menu and enter the following information.

    • Display text: Enter a caption for the hyperlink.

    • Link to: Select the File or website option.

    • Address: Enter the address of the page in the Web Portal that you want to open.

      NOTE: One Identity Manager provides a number of default functions that you can use to create hyperlinks in the Web Portal.

  3. To accept the input, click OK.

Default functions for creating hyperlinks

Several default functions are available to help you create hyperlinks. You can use the functions directly when you add a hyperlink in the mail body of a mail definition or in processes
