Notifications Tab

The Notifications Tab contains parameters used to control who receives a status email when a CopyStorm/Medic job runs and under what circumstances email is sent. CopyStorm/Medic supports email notifications via SMTP or via a Salesforce SOAP API call.

SFDC Notifications

Parameter Name Required Description
Send Email To Yes Notification emails will be sent to this white space separated list of email addresses.
Subject Yes The subject line used for notification emails. Though it can be any text you want, there are a few special text values that will be replaced dynamically before a message is sent:

  • “{status}” will be replaced by “OK” or “ERROR” based on the outcome of the job.
    • If there are any exceptions encountered then “ERROR” will be substituted, otherwise “OK” will be used.
  • “{application}” will be replaced by “CopyStorm/Medic”.
  • “{file}” will be replaced by the base name of the CopyStorm/Medic configuration file used by the job.
    • For example, the configuration file “C:\capstorm\config\myCopyStormMedicConfig.copyStormMedic” will be replaced with “myCopyStormMedicConfig.copyStormMedic”.
Send Notification On No Determines when CopyStorm/Medic will send a notification email:

  • Success: If checked, an email will be sent if a job works perfectly (no exceptions).
  • Exception(s): If checked, an email will be sent if a job has any exception (including non-fatal exceptions where CopyStorm/Medic recovered).
Notify Current User No If checked, the Salesforce User specified on the Main tab of CopyStorm/Medic will be notified in addition to the specified recipients (Send Email To).
