Task - Email Conversation

Conversation Task Configuration

Global Configuration

To make the task available to Case Management, add its name "emailconversation" to the list of tasks in your Environment Configuration.

Two task specific settings also need to be added:

PropertyDescription
emailConversation_DefaultNotificationRecipientEmailIf a task and case are both unassigned when a reply is received, this email address will be notified
emailConversation_ReplyToDomainThe domain used to handle responses, for example "cases.gossinteractive.com". This will be combined with a unique token and become the reply-to address of the email (the from address is the same as that set for the case type). This will need to be an Amazon SES verified domain

Example

"taskConf": {
    "availableTasks": [
        "multipurpose",
        "boilerplate",
        "emailconversation"
    ],
    "emailConversation_DefaultNotificationRecipientEmail": "[email protected]",
    "emailConversation_ReplyToDomain": "cases.gossinteractive.com"
}

Task Configuration

As well as the standard Tasks configuration (it's name, who it is assigned to, SLAs, whether the task can be cancelled etc) the following can be set:

SettingDescription
Available recipient addresses

These options appear when carrying out the task for the first time, and make up the "Contact options" drop-down

Pick from:

  • The person who raised the case
  • Manually enter email addresses
  • Pre-set addresses - build up a list of names an emails using the "add email" button and fields
  • Named user groups - enter the names of Site Groups that have a group email address
Available templatesIf any templates have already been created, they will be listed here. Select the ones that should be available in the task.

Press "Create new template" to add more. New templates need a name (visible in the task), a subject line (plain text) and message body as HTML
