I want to embed a PDF into an an email I am generating with CFMAIL. I am trying this but the email just shows nothing:
<cfhttp
url="https://jaydien.ezservicetrax.com/lifeback/docs/form1.pdf"
getasbinary="auto"
method="get"
result="urlContent"
>
</cfhttp>
Can anyone assist?
This is a limitation of EMAIL, not of ColdFusion (<cfmail>).
An email is either plain text or HTML
You might have seen this video showing how to embed a PDF into an email in Outlook:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0mdeBnmFlI
This option only exists in the Outlook desktop client, not the web UI, because all it's doing in displaying the first page of the PDF as an image in the body of the email. This conversion is done by the client and not possible via a browser.
Another reference to this question from this Adobe forum post from 2014 has more of an explanation. There's even a response from 2020 where someone is asking if there's any update on this and the answer is still
Send it as an attachment.

Good Day.
Is it possible for a chatbot to send an email (or run a script or pageurl that sends an email) invisibly (preferably) to the visitor when reaching some goal?
For example, the visitor asks a callback and after the chatbot receive his phone - this phone must be send to the person who will call the visitor.
Is it possible?
Yes I want to use PHP for this. But how can I send command to PHP file without clicking button and open this file?
Tried this:
<category>
<pattern>TESTSENDPHONE *</pattern>
<template>
SEND PHONE
<oob><url>http://website/send_email.php?message=<star /></url></oob>
</template>
</category>
not work.
Can a chatbot to send data to the Internet (any way - any language)? For example, using Javascript (AJAX), which is already used in chatbot, or any other language (method)?
I wrote a tutorial on something similar here which may help:
https://discover.bot/bot-talk/aiml-tutorial-survey-questions/
To send an email invisibly, you'll need to look at the mail function of PHP. This article should help:

Alternatively, someone should be checking the bot conversation logs to manually pick out such details and contact your customers. You'll see the phone numbers etc in the logs.
My requirement is to get the email ID from the user in qualtrics and to invoke a webservice with email as a param at the end of the registration . The webservice will register the user in my site. Actually i am not getting how to get the piped text code for the email field(I created as a question for email). Also i couldn't see the option of GET/POST in the qualtrics webservice. Can anyone please help me how to generate a piped text code for the email question?
Under web service parameters you would have:
email = ${pipedTextField}
Where pipedTextField would be something like q://QID1/ChoiceTextEntryValue if it was a text question. An easy way to get the correct pipedTextField value is to create a temporary embedded data field and use the drop down to pick the piped text. Then copy that to your web service parameter field.
There is no GET/POST option. All web service calls are GET.
P.S. If my answer to your previous question about Qualtrics web service calls was helpful, please accept it.
I am creating a form through web form from marketers and on submit button's save action I have added a 'Send Email Action' for sending a email. And I have also changed 'Send Email Message' action's parameters and . But still it is not sending email. Please tell me how to resolve this problem?
here is the error:
We experienced a technical difficulty while processing your request.
There are two things you should check.
Does the SMTP server you have configured, actually pass mail through?
Are there any exceptions showing in the Sitecore logs?
This blog post: http://intothecore.cassidy.dk/2012/05/email-confusion-configuring-smtp.html takes you through pretty much everything in relation to setting SMTP options for your Sitecore solution and for Webforms for Marketers. It's easy to get confused as to how these work.
Im building an html email from scratch and then sending it through the email.send() function of EMailMEssage. My Html takes in links from an assets path in on the site and sends it through the email for users to download. Now for some reason when i display the email in an email client my url looks as follows. "myWebSite/media/th%20umbnails/2013/09/10/v4_t.png" as you can see the client is rendering the link with a whitespace between th and um of the word thumbnails and I cant figure out as to why. ANy other questions please ask. Im really stumped by this...
I am looking into authenticating via google.
I dont understand how it works:http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/OpenID.html#Samples
If i do that 2nd request by entering the data as one url with params into browser i get back XML file. Should i not get back sample response nr3?
Can somebody explain this to me?
The problem is, that im trying to sort through some third party app that uses google openid authentication and its not recieving authenticated users e-mail back, like in sample response 3.
Alan
PS i have read through similar questions and their responses and gone through pages like:
How does OpenID authentication work?
http://www.windley.com/archives/2006/04/how_does_openid.shtml
http://tinisles.blogspot.com/2008/02/how-does-openid-work.html
http://openid.net/pres/protocolflow-1.1.png
What sort of XML file?
Remember that a checkid_setup request like that isn't something your application is meant to make with a direct connection, it's a request that's sent from the user's browser. So the response is going to be something for the browser to parse, prompt the user to log in if necessary, maybe ask the user for permission or which values it should send back, and only after all of that send back a redirect like in the sample response.
