Configuration properties

The following table describes the configuration properties of the Send Email task.

Property	Data type	Description
Recipients	String	Email address of the recipient(s). You can specify multiple email addresses separated by a comma.
Subject	String	Email subject line.
Body	String	Email body in plaintext.

You can set the properties to any of the following values:

• A literal
• An integration variable
• A combination of a literal and an integration variable

You can enter combinations of literals and integration variables for the string values. Use dollar sign notation for variable names, that is, precede and follow the variable name with a $ sign. For example, if you want to use a variable $varSubject$ in the email Subject, you will enter text similar to Test $varSubject$ where Test is a literal and $varSubject$ is the variable.

Retry on failure

You can configure various retry strategies to handle errors in a task. The retry strategies allow you to specify how to rerun the task or integration in case of an error. For more information, see Error handling strategies.
