S3 File as Email Attachment
Hello,
As part of an error handling pipeline, I am attempting to write a detailed error file to an S3 bucket, and then attach that file to the email notification at the end of the error pipeline to...

Hi Charlie,
Thanks for your detailed response. I’ve been able to manipulate the body of the email with a lot of flexibility, but my question revolves around using the attachment feature to attach an S3 file onto the email.
My pipeline is already writing the pertinent error data into the body of the email, but I want to be able to keep a more detailed record of the error and stacktrace in a file attached to the alert message. This is where I ran into trouble attaching an S3 file, while I’ve been successful using a file from the native snaplogic file system.
Is this something that is possible? Or does the email sender snap only support files from snaplogic?
Hope this clears up my question.
Thanks,
Jack
Hi Jack,
You’re very welcome for the information! At this time, our documentation does not specify that we support AWS S3 protocol within the Attachment field in the Email Sender Snap.

I am not sure if such an enhancement is in the roadmap, but I could connect you with the right folks who can provide more information on this.
In the meantime, the example I described (parsing the file contents and inserting that to the email body) could be used. Please let me know if you would like to get in touch with our PM team.
Thank you for your time and patience.

Thanks Charlie. I’ve managed this for now by simply writing to SLDB, sending the message with the attachment, then deleting the file afterwards. I’ll let you know if we’d like to talk about a product enhancement down the line.
Best,
Jack
