Examples

This example sends a Pimcore notification to a user with the username recipientUser, if the variants were successfully generated in the previous step (this of course depends on how the data is stored by the previous step into the job run context).

It will also incorporate the object type of new variants in the subject template and the variant data in the content template.

step_implementation: send_notification
configuration:
    recipients:
        - 'recipientUser'
    channel_type:
        - 'notification'
    subject_template: "New objects with type - {{ environmentData.ObjectType }} were generated"
    content_template: "Variants with this data <br> {{ context.variantData|raw }} <br> has been successfully generated."

This example sends a Pimcore notification and an email to a user with the username recipientUser and additionally to users with the role newUserRole.

It will also incorporate the object type of the new variants in the subject template and the variant data in the content template.

        - 'recipientUser'
