Modify Email Alerts OCUM 7

Vikramjeet_Singh — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 13:52:33 GMT

We are looking to modify email alert send through OCUM when volume is full

We need to edit email body to our needs i.e. add couple of line to the email body

I have looked into some forums but I am bit confused.

Can you please help...where shall I start from?

I know that we can write a powershell script and add that to each and every alert on OCUM

I dont know how to modify email alert through powershell scripts

Can you please advice!!!

Hi Vikramjeet,

Here is an "example" for you that you can modify to meet your requirements. You would need to:

Update the variables "$to", "$from" and "$smtpServer" to the relevent values in your infrastructure
Add any additional lines you require to the $body variable
Format the CSS and HTML to meet your requirements

Please let me know if you have any questions.
