SendEmailRequest with Connection entity

Posted on by 70

We are trying to send emails to our contacts with the SDK methods in plug-ins and web services.

But we keep the email data on a custom field on the Connection entity instead of the default one in the Contact entity. So we can't easily set the "from" and "to" fields as ActivityParty which uses entities like Contact or system user. We need to retrieve the emails from contact's related connection entitites to send them via SendEmailRequest method.

Is it possible? What do you advice?

Thanks

    Hi,

    Assuming are able to retrieve the email address from the related connection, you refer the below blog to send the email to custom addresses.

    Is there also any way to use the CRM's email functionality with custom email addresses?
