One possible way is to still look up user's address from directory as a mandatory (to address), then option to provide additional email addresses (as cc). It can be considered additional behavior, not completely change of the logic. The send-email work-around is fine, the only thing is design the template from scratch is tedious, it'll be good to provide some default template and work from there.

For my requirement at hands, simply having an option to include the notes as free text would do, as we won't be putting too much rich formatting notes inside, simply a reference number. Similar with "Additional Options" in Deployment Execution Completed event listener, if we could provide a checkbox to include Notes in Approval Required event listener should be fine for now.

Thank you for the report, it appears to be a regression with that event listener that will be fixed in the next version. A patch is also available for download here, simply extract the zip file and execute the contained SQL file against the BuildMaster database. Note: This patch may only be used for versions of BuildMaster between v5.0.0 and v5.2.3 (inclusive) and will be already included in v5.2.4 and later.

Hi, Great thanks. Just what I needed. I couldn't work out how to get the list to work. David

In the v4 execution engine, your best bet is to create a file with that name, and then read the file contents into a variable. In the v5 engine, you will be able to export variables via powershell a little easier (example: PowerShell & Scripting from Otter docs.

This original post is really old and refers to an old version of BUildMaster (v4); I'm not sure what version you're using, etc. Can you submit this as a new question so we can more easily try to address / reproduce / investigate it?

The editors/extensions are sealed, so unfortunately the only pattern available at this time is the "Inherits by Clipboard" pattern. In this case it shouldn't be so bad, since it's a couple-line action+editor.

Hi Steve and Tod, Thanks for the information. At my next available opportunity, I will be testing my server to see if my ISP blocks SMTP transmissions. I read through the How-To you referenced on that topic, and it's a bit of a stretch for my experience, so it may take me a while. However, I will report back when I have results. Also, to Steve's question, we are using the latest version of BuildMaster, just updated prior to testing SMTP settings. To your point about two-factor authentication, I just checked my Google Account settings, and I am NOT currently using 2-factor authentication (though I probably should be). Thanks for the thought, though. I will do some more work and report back. Thanks again for the ideas. Matthew
