Hi
I am using AEM Cloud. I want to send email notification to owner and one team when an asset version is created. This email template should be from crx/de. How can i include email template in the workflow step and where can i create email template in crx/de? How to make some of the fields configurable in aem wf model ?
one more question : Is implementing launcher or creating event is recommended to start the workflow on an event.
Hi @shikhasoni1,
You can create your email template node (e.g., under /apps/your-project/email-templates) in CRX/DE and include placeholders (using AEM Expression Language) for dynamic fields.
In your workflow model, add a “Send Email” process step and configure the step to read the email template from its CRX/DE path and bind configurable fields (like recipient, subject) using workflow variables (e.g., ${wf:variableName}) defined via the step’s dialog. Expose configuration properties via the workflow step dialog and use these properties in your email template by referencing them with Expression Language. You can use a launcher (workflow launcher configuration) to trigger the workflow when an asset version is created. Launchers are preferred over custom events as they are built-in, robust, and require less custom coding.
