I wants to implement email feature in apex database application.
I have implemented database application for leave request. My requirement is, when user enter leave details and click on 'apply' button email should send to the approver.
Please let me know how to implement this. what r the setups required and what needs to be done in apply button.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Sagarika,
Fortunately the APEX Mail API is very well documented
Please see: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37097_01/doc/doc.42/e35127/apex_mail.htm#CIHDIEJI
I believe this should give you all the information you need.
Thanks

Attaching a BI Publisher report to an email from Apex

Hello,
My Apex application runs reports using a BI Publisher server- using a defined query and rtf template.
The end user clicks on a button and a pdf report opens up- works perfect.
Now, I need the click of the button to send an email having this report as an attachment.
I am familiar with sending email from Apex + attachment.
My problem is to create the report somewhere on the server without opening in a new browser window, then to attach the report that has just been create using BI Publisher to the email.
Does anyone know how this can be accomplished?
Thanks
Rani

Hi Tony,
Just found out about a completely different solution:
Thanks for your help.
Rani
Solution:
declare
datoteka blob;
st_poste number;
begin
datoteka:=apex_util.get_print_document(
p_application_id=>'183',
p_report_query_name=>'REVIEW_COORD',
p_report_layout_name=>'REVIEW_COORD',
p_report_layout_type=>'rtf',
p_document_format=>'pdf');
st_poste:=apex_mail.send(
p_to=>'[email protected]',
p_from=>'[email protected]',
p_body=>'Test',
p_subj=>'Subject');
apex_mail.add_attachment(
p_mail_id=>st_poste,
p_attachment=>datoteka,
p_filename=>'REVIEW_COORD.pdf',
p_mime_type=>'application/pdf');
apex_mail.push_queue;
end ;

Sending Email from Apex

hi
can any one have application, which is having sending email option
or
tell me how to send email from apex application

And you could take a look at the APEX_MAIL package and documentation in the API here : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10513_01/doc/apirefs.310/e12855/apex_mail.htm#CIHDIEJI

Insert Email into APEX

Dear Experts,
I want to ask You if you know a simple way to parse email with APEX standart utility and then to insert data from that email into the Oracle table, so that then these data would show up on APEX reports.
Thank you in advance

If you're talking about APEX receiving emails, then parsing them into a table, there's nothing built-in to do that. I have worked with Oracle BPEL Process Manager and it has the ability to monitor one or more mail accounts (POP or IMAP), parse incoming emails, then take action on those emails. It's a totally different product than APEX, but it does what you want out-of-the-box. I believe this is even one of the tutorials that ships with BPEL.

Error while sending email via APEX

I get the following error message when trying to send an email to a WORKSPACE owner via APEX:
ORA-29279: SMTP permanent error: 501 Syntax error, parameters in command "MAIL FROM:" unrecognized or missing
This is very weird, when I go to the email queue the column "from" appears as empty and it should come from the email configured from "Administration Email Address".
Any help will be welcome,
Thanks.

post ur code plz

It does not seem to be working. I have currently put it on the home page. Would it fire when anyone goes to the home and it's Thursday. What page would be the best place to put this?
This is the first time I am working on APEX.
Could someone please help with this.

Receive Emails in Apex

Hi everyone,
Is there any way to receive emails directly into the database using apex?
Thank you,
Alex.

Hi Alex,
in this thread you can find an example of a PL/SQL function (database function) fetching mail from a POP3 server. It still is basic and depending on your needs you might need to extend it.
Re: Read Mail Folder
I've been playing with it some time ago and it works great without JAVA, but there still is some coding to be done. I also recall a package somewhere on the interet which was doing the same but also not finished.
So you won't do this from APEX but direct from the database and coördinate it from APEX.
Regards
Bas
btw if you extend this function I'm always intersted, haven't had the time yet to fine tune it but it would be a great addition to many apps

APEX Email without APEX

I have an email I want to send out nightly but to make it simpler to setup I was wondering if there way a way to gain access to APEX's sendmail routines without being actually inside of APEX. There is no information in the emails that is dependent on any particular user being logged in to apex, I just want to use the email functionality with DBMS_JOBs. Any suggestions?

Are you sure you're not confusing UTL_MAIL with UTL_SMTP?
Although UTL_MAIL does require a DB parameter to be set up, its use is comparable with APEX_MAIL:
UTL_MAIL.SEND (
   sender      IN    VARCHAR2 CHARACTER SET ANY_CS,
   recipients IN    VARCHAR2 CHARACTER SET ANY_CS,
   cc          IN    VARCHAR2 CHARACTER SET ANY_CS DEFAULT NULL,
   bcc         IN    VARCHAR2 CHARACTER SET ANY_CS DEFAULT NULL,
   subject     IN    VARCHAR2 CHARACTER SET ANY_CS DEFAULT NULL,
   message     IN    VARCHAR2 CHARACTER SET ANY_CS,
   mime_type   IN    VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'text/plain; charset=us-ascii',
   priority    IN    PLS_INTEGER DEFAULT NULL);
APEX_MAIL.SEND(
    p_to                        IN    VARCHAR2,
    p_from                      IN    VARCHAR2,
    p_body                      IN [ VARCHAR2 | CLOB ],
    p_body_html                 IN [ VARCHAR2 | CLOB ] DEFAULT NULL,
    p_subj                      IN    VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
    p_cc                        IN    VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
    p_bcc                       IN    VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
    p_replyto                   IN    VARCHAR2);APEX_MAIL does win on HTML and attachment capabilities though (seriously Oracle, why cripple UTL_MAIL by limiting attachments to 32K VARCHAR2/RAW?)

Sending email from apex 4.0 with oracle 11g ee

Hi,
I the past when working with apex 3 I was able to work with apex mailsend very nice.
In apex 4.0 with oracle 11g ee I'm not able to send emails anymore.
Last error message in the queue is:
ORA-29279: SMTP permanent error: 550 through this server without authentication.
the smtp server has not been changed, the code is fine
How I can go further?
Many thanks,
Florin

This is a different subject:
Apex Reports and links to external content
What you are asking should be possible.
Risk: everyone who uses the link needs to have the same drive mapping if you are using letters on a Windows PC. As long as that is not a usability issue, you are fine.
I would recommend you review the LINK syntax in the report column.
Your text seems like you have already attempted this.
>
Click Here , i.e. href="file:///E:/Echo Destination/1212040003.docx"
. . . . . . . from XYZ
Here I am unable to open this document via click on this column link on report............
Thanks..To confirm the link syntax you want first, Write a simple HTML file with the link to make sure you have the correct quoting and the link content is correct.
What does the REPORT resulting HTML look like when you examine it on the page?
I would expect something like:
<a href=file:///E:/Echo Destination/1212040003.docx> go to file </a>If the result is different, then we can discuss why it isn't what you are expecting.

Read email using APEX

Hi,
Now APEX has some good API to send out emails -- but any idea how to retrieve emails from mail server using APEX or pl/sql packages?
Basically something to retrieve emails to database table and use APEX to build a UI to read them.
Thanks!
thcheng

Hi,
have a look at http://sql-plsql-de.blogspot.com/2007/12/emails-aus-einem-postfach-abrufen.html
It describes a Java stored procedure to read emails which is wrapped by a PL/SQL wrapper. The posting is written in German, but you can use a translation service like Google to read it in English.

Emails from APEX being delivered late

I have APEX 3.2 and emails are taking several hours to deliver. If I check the mail queue and click on "Deliver all mail", then only they are delivered. Otherwise they are taking several hours.
any clues ?
abhay

Hi,
additionally you could force the mails in queue to be sent by calling the procedure APEX_MAIL.PUSH_QUEUE. For details, you may want to have a look on the API documentation:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14373_01/apirefs.32/e13369/apex_mail.htm#CHDJGGHG
Note that depending on the amount of concurrent mail send actions this might slow down response times, because this call will usually wait for the queue to be done with the mail send process before it returns and a session may have to wait for the queue to be ready for being "pushed" again if the queue has just been "pushed" by another session.
