Messages from the Log tab to email

[Kostiantyn]

Hi guys! How can I organize receiving messages from the Log tab to email? And not all messages, but only "Error" (orange) and "Alert" (red). I would be grateful for the lines of code. Thanks.

P.S. It is enough to receive a signal that there is a record of an error in the strategy. It is not necessary to receive the error content.

Hello Kostiantyn,

Thank you for your post.

You would need to set up your email as a share service first to send notifications to your email..

To do so please follow the instructions below.

• In the Control Center, select Tools > Options.
• In the General tab of the Options menu locate 'share services'.
• Click 'add share service...'
• First, select Email followed by clicking 'add'.
• In the Configured section select 'Email'.
• Adjust the Properties section to include your information.
• Click Apply.
• Click OK.

Once your email is set up as a share service, you would set your email in the Tools > Options > General tab > 'Email log alert messages to' field. This will send you an email notification when Alert messages occur.

For emailing errors, you could use a try/catch block to trap errors and email them using the Share() method or the SendEmail() method. Please note that it is suggested to call CloseStrategy() or SetState(State.Terminated) if trapping exception errors with a try/catch block. Also, note that hiding errors with a try/catch block is not advised.

See the example script in the help guide documentation below about using try/catch blocks.
