SendMail not working

[habibalex]

else if (State == State.DataLoaded){
            Print("test");
            SendMail(Email,"testIns","test");

}

I'm unable to get my alerts to fire and send emails for the last couple weeks. did something change? I am able to use the share services test email functionality but it doesn't seem to work in my indicator anymore. I made a short test script w/ the Email set to mine above but I only see 'test' being printed in the output window. It doesn't seem to even attempt to try and run sendmail.

Hello habibalex,

Thank you for your post.

The issue is that you're calling SendMail() during State.DataLoaded. SendMail() may only be called during State.Realtime.

The correct usage would then be:

else if (State == State.Realtime)
{
Print("test");
SendMail(Email,"testIns","test");
}
