Hi,

Hi Nikita,
Per my knowledge, site workflow cannot achieve what you want.
I recommend to send the email to the specific user programmatically.
Here is the code example for your reference(send email to one user):
using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://sp"))//use your own site collection URL
using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())//if it is a subsite, please add the Title of the subsite here
SPList list = web.Lists["Tasks"];//your task list name
SPQuery qry = new SPQuery();
qry.Query = "<Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='AssignedTo' /><Value Type='User'>Administrator</Value></Eq></Where>";
SPListItemCollection items = list.GetItems(qry); //you can add more query to get the items assigned to other users
string text="";
for (int i = 0; i <items.Count; i++)
SPListItem item = items[i];
text += SPEncode.HtmlEncode(item["Title"].ToString()) + " : " +
SPEncode.HtmlEncode(item["Status"].ToString()) + " : " +
SPEncode.HtmlEncode(item["Start Date"].ToString()) + " : " +
SPEncode.HtmlEncode(item["ID"].ToString()) + "<BR>";
bool appendHtmlTag = false;
bool htmlEncode = false;
string toAddress = "[email protected]";//the user’s email address
string subject = "Your Tasks";
string message = text;
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
bool result = SPUtility.SendEmail(web, appendHtmlTag, htmlEncode, toAddress, subject, message);
Best regards.
