Is it possible to customize the e-mail notification that is sent by 24x7? I would like to add hyperlink addresses to the notification upon successful completion of a job.

You can add such link text as a part of the job name. Your email client will automatically display it as an active hyperlink addresses.

Another possibility is to use "script" type notification instead of "email" type. In the script you can use MailSend statement with any desired message subject and text.

I tried to use a script with MailSend. I am using SMTP mail, no password is necessary. My script is as follows:

MailSend 24x7 Scheduler,username@smtp.zzz.com,subject: Success!,message:You may find your report at http://test/html

24x7 returns the following error:

11/30/2001 11:45:41 1 101 New Job Notification Action Failed: An error occurred while executing automation script. Line 1: Bad number of arguments.

What am I doing wrong?

Paste it as single line

MailSend "sender@smtp.zzz.com", "", "recipient@smtp.zzz.com", "Success!", "You may find your report at http://test/html";

I still get the same error. I copied your script as one line. I also tried to use the wizard, which gave me the following script:

MailSend( 24x7, , recipient@smtp.zzz.com, Test subject, Test message )

That also gave me the bad argument error. Any ideas?

Please paste the text as I have it in my message with double quotes and no semicolon at the end.

Once again it should be
MailSend "sender@smtp.zzz.com", "", "recipient@smtp.zzz.com", "Success!", "You may find your report at http://test/html";

PS. Both your versions have incorrect syntax.

Thanks, that worked. The first time I left the semicolon in.
