Instructions


Step 1: Navigate to your workflow scenario within Automatic Email Manager

  • Add or edit the 'Save email' action
  • Specify the format as TEXT
  • Manually append the .xml extension in the 'File' field to define the output as an XML file


Step 2: Click on 'More options'

  • Select the 'xml-format' template, a pre-configured option containing essential email data
  • Click the 'Edit' link to access the template in a text editor, like Notepad
  • Modify the xml template to align with your specific requirements
