NOTE: When an Event is triggered, it remains triggered until all Actions have been completed. Once the
Actions are complete, the Event’s “triggered” flag is reset.
The E-mail Action sends an e-mail to a set of recipients. There are fields for the To, Cc, and Bcc
addresses, as well as, a field for the message body. The message body can be either a simple text string,
or a complex expression. The subject line of the e-mail is created from the name of the Action.
There are no repeat values specified for E-Mail Actions. The Action will execute only once per Event
trigger.
Use the “Timeout in” value to have the Action abort, if it doesn’t complete before the time-out period
expires.
HTTP Post
An HTTP Post Action can be used to post data to a web server. The format of the posted data is
dependent on the capabilities of the server receiving the post. The data returned by the server is discarded.
HTTP Post Actions are useful for commanding a server to perform a particular operation.
There are no repeat values for HTTP Post Actions. The Action will execute only once each time the
owning Event is triggered.
Use the “Timeout in” value to have the Action abort, if it doesn’t complete before the time-out period
expires.
