You can use the same script in multiple email notifications and notification templates. To do so, add a ${script:script_name} embedded script tag to the notification rule or to the related notification template. You can use the embedded scripts in the following scriptsfields:

Enter the script using SimpleOne server-side API, particularly, the SimpleRecord Server-Side, SimpleEmailOutbound and SimpleTemplatePrinter classes.

There are four objects available in the notification scripts:

current – the SimpleRecord class object that triggered the notification.
template – the SimpleTemplatePrinter class object.
email – the SimpleEmailOutbound class object.
event – the SimpleRecord class object.

To receive the values of the current and event objects, use the dot-notation to address the properties relating to the column names and of the current and Events (sys_event) tables. See the example below:

Code Block

language	js
theme	Eclipse
title	Example
linenumbers	true

(function runNotificationScript(
    /* SimpleRecord */ current,
    /* SimpleTemplatePrinter */ template,
    /* SimpleEmailOutbound */ email,
    /* SimpleRecord */ event
    ) {

    email.setSubject(current.number + '- additional comment has been added');
    email.setBody(`A comment from: ${event.sys_created_by.display_name}: "${event.param_2}"`);

    if (current.days_count > 3 && !current.requester.vip) {
        email.addAddressCc(current.requester.email, current.requester.display_name);
    }

})(current, template, email, event);
