You can send personalized emails by including properties in messages. Your application then autopopulates the properties at run time with data corresponding to the relevant case. For example, you can include a property that corresponds with a case ID or a recipient name. After you create email content, you can save the message in a template library, so that you can reuse the message in the future. You can also include attachments to provide more information and context before a user accepts or rejects a case. To reach wider audiences and provide even more flexibility, you can also send approval requests to users of mobile apps by enabling push notifications in your app. The subject that you define for the email is also a push notification text.

1. In the navigation pane of App Studio, click Case types, and then click the case type that you want to open.
2. On the Workflow tab, click Life cycle.
3. Click the Approve/Reject step for which you want to add email or push notification approval requests.
4. In the Step properties pane, in the Enable approval from section, select how you want to send the approval message:
   • To request approval by email, select the Email check box.
   • To request approval by push notification, select the Mobile check box.
   You can select both email and push notification forms.
5. In the Email subject / Push notification message field, enter text that you want to use as an email subject or a push notification message.
   You can reference property names in the subject to make it more dynamic and meaningful.
   For example: Enter Case .pyCaseID is waiting for your approval.
   Result: At run time, the application autopopulates the properties with relevant data. For example, at run time the email subject is Case LoanRequest-123 is waiting for your approval.

For example: If you select a category of scanned documents, your application attaches all scanned documents to the email. For example: If you select a field that stores the amount of the loan requested, your application creates an attachment that contains the amount.
