One way to do this, though it is a lot of work, is to create a new form that
combines the data from the Email Messages form and the Email Attachments
form and pushes the joined data, using a table loop, to HPD:Work Log. This
way it creates a separate work log entry for each attachment.

 

Take a look at how HPD:WorkLog relates to HPD:Help Desk and you should be
able to figure out what fields to push. You can push attachments like any
other field. The trick is matching an attachment to an email and looping
through all of the possible attachments.

Subject: How to add the attachment included in an email message when
creating a new Incident

 

Morning All!

 

I've set up workflow to create new or modify existing records in Incident
Management when a request is submitted via email thru the AR System Email
Messages form; however I'm struggling with getting it to include any
attachments.

 

I've searched thru arslist and BMC's KB for different phrases, but am not
finding anything about it. I'm guessing I'm using wrong phrases or words, so
if anyone could point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it!
Or if there are any whitepapers, etc about the process that's even better
:-). 

 

I have a pdf on the Email Engine however it's using a template but we want
to do this freeform, so basically if an email is submitted into the AR
System Email Messages form, AND it gets pushed into the Incident Management
app, then I need any attachments that were sent in the email to be attached
to the ticket we created or modified.

 

Thanks so much for any assistance!!! :-)
