I am working on sending mail via workflow and would like for list inserts by a particular user, say
user1, to send mail to a particular AD group, say TestGroup1. Similarly, for user2 to userN.
Is it possible to determine AD group membership inside a workflow?
Thnaks in Advance,
Naresh.
I have done this by adding emailId of manager in manager's group which exists in AD and sent mail through workflow..so that the mail can sent to user(who adds an item in a list) and that Manager Email ID..

I have a class registration set up in SharePoint 2013. Users are emailed when they register for a class. I want to create email notifications when the Start Date, Start Time or Location [fields] of the Session changes. I only want to email the users that have registered for said Session (between 1 and 400 people).
I should be able to handle this with an Alert or an Event, but can't figure it out. My SharePoint team is telling me that this is too difficult because "the columns are in Sessions [list] and not in Registrations [list view].
I've found a lot of information on general SharePoint alerts, but I can't find anything on sending notifications to a select group of users, based on another field.
You could create event receiver for the list and send email by SPUtility.SendEmail with dynamic users.
You could check sample code from here.

I know that MS set a field called ConversationId that uniquely identify a mail thread for each user. This works for replies of non domain users inclusive.
So, how MS does this? Are they using an hidden unique email ID for that?
I'd like know if there some way to identify messages generated by MS outlook users (web) that could be used to track a message among the domain users.
Sure, see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/cc765583.aspx. All of these properties can be accessed using MailItem.PropertyAccessor.
I have an account of gotomeeting and using api to create/start/getMeeting etc but I have not found any api to send mail and invite people to attend a meeting. Is it possible to send invitation mail to people to join a meeting using api? If not then is there any other solution to send meeting invitation mail?
Is it possible to register a user before start of meeting? How can we find how many user has attended the meeting?
Thanks in advanced.
Yes its possible, the email invitation will be in two type
A normal email from server
An appoinment item.
If you want to send a normal email to participants. just fill the mail with join link with Created meetingid
You can create the join link for any particular meeting by concatenating the www.global.gotomeeting.com/join/ with meetingID which is look like www.global.gotomeeting.com/join/25456364 (number is sample meeting id).
send the above details as a mail. Sending mails from program depends on "which language you are developing" like C#/JAVA?
If you want to send the appoinment item, either you need to use EWS (Exchange webservices API) or you need to generate an ".ics" file from application with your meeting details filled in.
For your questions:
Is it possible to register a user before start of the meeting?
Yes, you can. the gotomeeting application itself having the options for invite a participant and adding a co-orrganizer.
How can we find how many user has attended the meeting?
You can find it using the api function call. below is the C# code for getting the attendees of a past meeting.
Namespace : using Citrix.GoToMeeting.Api;
MeetingsApi meeting = new MeetingsApi();
List<AttendeeByMeeting> attendees = new System.Collections.Generic.List<AttendeeByMeeting>();
attendees = meeting.getAttendeesByMeetings(accesToken, 23843894);
NOTE : API is used within the context of gotomeeting application, physically you cannot attend a meeting in any application except GotoMeeting desktop application and GotoMeeting webapplication (which is offered in their website).
GTM isn't going to send the email for you it, as it doesn't have access to any email account. You should be looking to use one of the wide variety of different email APIs around. E.g. if you're in a Windows/Exchange environment then look at using the Exchange Web Services. If you want a more generic solution look for an SMTP library for your platform.
Attendees for GTMs don't register at any point, only hosts need to have a registered account. Even when you join a meeting as an attendee the details (name + email) you put in can be anything. What are you trying to achieve by "pre-registration"?
I can't answer your last question about finding out how many users attended the meeting, I would guess probably not but I'm not really familiar with the API.
Our company would like to share our contact list in Outlook 2010. However, as we do not have Exchange, we cannot use the share contact feature in Outlook 2010.
We would like to use LDAP to share our contact list as stated in this website:
https://kb.wisc.edu/wiscmail/page.php?id=13789
As far as I know, if I add a new contact in Outlook, LDAP would not sync with it and thus I need to edit it on web. But, may I know if Outlook could get the latest contact list on LDAP server after I amend the list?
Or is there any other good suggestion for share contact list in Outlook 2010?
Thanks for any advice!
To answer your question, yes, Outlook can retrieve an up-to-date user list from your Active Directory server, but it will not happen immediately after you add\delete a user, and it's only a one way sync from Active Directory -> Outlook. An update is triggered every 24 hours (by default), in which the contact list would be synced with the users existing under the Search Base you specified in Step #10 (of the link you provided).
That being said, for contacts you wish to share, you should just be adding them as users to Active Directory, instead of adding them directly to your contact list in Outlook. You'll experience the noted latency in seeing newly added users (same goes for users that you delete as well), but it's nice only having to add them in one place, and they can then be shared amongst all of your users.
You can keep your contacts in Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express with the addind, from your LDAP server with
https://github.com/fquiroz01/LDAPSyncOutlook/
Install the App in the computer with Microsoft Outlook or Windows Mail the App keep contacts sync with the LDAP server and mail client contacts.
I have a client who wants his custom-written CRM to be able to access his sales people's emails so that, effectively, a history of email conversations between customer and salesperson is stored inside the CRM's database.
The CRM is written in Visual Basic 2008 and the database is SQL Server 2008. The only email these people use, in the shop and on the road, is Gmail. Each sales person has their own Gmail address. That's how they operate.
If they're on the road and respond to a customer's email inquiry about a product, they would like that email conversation to be stored in a table in the database. I think that's the part I can't wrap my head around. How do I get access to the email data (knowing the user id and password) and doing so from Visual Basic 2008?
A free or close to free solution would be preferred.
One thing that we have done in the past is create a separate email account and just have the users to BCC this email address, for example, crm#somewhere.com. We then have a small application, on the server, that polls email from this central mailbox and automatically attaches it to the entity based on the recipients email address.
We also allow the user to add some commands at the bottom of the email, for attaching to things like work orders and/or bills, for example, wo 1000 (for a work order 1000) or b 1000 (for bill 1000).
Just another idea.
