Like Condition Evalution in Email Template Address Field

[chandu_k09]

Hi All,

I am wondering what the syntax is or if it is possible to do a "like" evaluation in the email template where if the user's email contain a phrase like "_converted" then IGA shouldn't send the email, else send the email to e.g. the manager. For testing purposes I have included some other email addresses in CP64 and CP65 to see if the email goes through. So far it hasn't worked when I use "like" condition. 

Failing code in TO: <% if (user?.email like '%_converted%') print "${user?.customproperty65}" else print "${user?.customproperty64}"%> 

Thank you,

Chandu K.

Hi @chandu_k09 ,

I am not sure if 'like' will work here.

But contains should work. Try below:

<% if(user.email.toString().contains('_converted')){print "${user?.customproperty65}"} else {print "${user?.customproperty64}"}%>

Email template uses java  functions and not mysql methods.

<% if(user?.email.contains('_converted')){print "${user?.customproperty65}"} else {print "${user?.customproperty64}"}%>

Hi Rushikesh and Prem,

Thanks for your suggestions and feedback. 

@PremMahadikar I didn't check the "tostring" method. But the .contains worked anyway and the issue is now resolved. 

Kind regards,

Chandu
