Feasibility of sending text content to recipient email from storyline.

Hi Team,
Need help in sending an one line text received from learner and send it back to learner thru email. 

In storyline interactive course: Learner will need to key in goals to achieve 2023 and their email id.

  • Hi Walt, Thank you for sharing the work around option.

    The requirement is not to make windows open outlook, just need to send text entry content to an email id.

    My bad, I didn't quiet understand the content in the shared discussion. My scenario is to get user details and message using TextEntry input field (Email and goal). After getting the input from user, when a email button is clicked the text content need to be emailed the the email id shared by the user not required to open the outlook.

    Regards

    Sure, I can help with that! To send the one-line text input and the learner's email address back to them via email, you will need to use a server-side scripting language like PHP or Python to handle the email functionality.

      Or if you're an old fart, Classic ASP with VBScript and CDOSYS. 😁

      Hi Teresa,

      Can you please share some references to explore the server-side scripting.
