Numerous Email addresses

[BrianBrelsford]

How can I , using variables the list function populate over 2,000 email addresses without doing one at time.

Is there a limit on how many can be sent.
When testing with list ... example email=bob@gmail.com, george@gmail.com, etc....it seems to bomb with that many.

Can someone help with any ideas or suggestions. I've looked at the one on automation anywhere, using list variable...but there's only 4 or 5 in example. Can I put 2,000 in , without entering them one by one ?

Thanks

Hello Brain,

It is not required to create list variable to read 2000 email Ids. You can easily read the unlimited number of Email Ids using “Read form CSV/Text” command present under “Applications” categories of Task Editor’s window.

You are required to prepare a list of Email IDs in .txt file or .csv file format and use the “Read form CSV/Text” to read the email Id one by one. This email Id can be passed to Send Email command to send the emails to each email Id being read from .txt or .csv file.

Try running the sample task (Email_AA.atmn) attached with this post.

Please follow below mentioned instruction to run task successfully:
1. Save Email_List.txt in C:\
2. Save Email_AA.atmn at My Documents\Automation Anywhere\Automation Anywhere\My Tasks (Default location)
3. Launch Automation Anywhere and run the Email_AA.atmn.

You will observe that the message box will pop up displaying different email ids. By replacing message box with “Send Email” command you can easily send email to all the email Id’s in the list.

Please let us know how it goes.
