In ivy 7.1 we will only add the filename of the file, without path information. As we have seen that this is common practice.

Flavio Sadeghi is the one who answered me for the last time, he would be the best recipient. I will add my question as a comment to our conversation in december.

Whats your prefered attachment filename? Just foo.txt, without the folders?

Hi Reguel

I can confirm this behavior in ivy 5.x and 6.x described by trungdv. Essentialy it is not possible to attach a file from deeper folder than <designer>/files/application without being renamed. Example: /application/subdir1/foo.txt will be attached as subdir1_foo.txt

It means, you cannot consider sending more files in time lapse with one file name from your application dir without workaround, which is VERY uncomfortable.

Hi Reguel

When i put the email attachment inside [YourDesignerPath]/files/applications/<timestamp_folder>/attachment.png then send attachment with relative path (ex: <timestamp_folder>/attachment.png) by email elements,

i receive an email with attachment name is <timestamp_folder>/attachment.png, somehow email elements use the path as name of file. how can i change it? i don't want to have the timestamp folder in my attachment name.

The attachment must be in the file area of the current application. During design time this is always [YourDesignerPath]/files/applications.

You can always reach these files via API

ivy.wf.getApplication().getFileArea();
