Mail BuildingBlock
The Ometa Framework provides an out-of-the-box solution to send emails. This functionality can be found in the 'Ometa.Utilities' object, in the 'Send Mail' method.
Mail Profile
In order to execute this building block, a specific mailing profile is required. This can be from any of these templates:
- Graph API - Mail Building Block: Template to send emails using the Graph API, this requires a ClientId and a Certificate.
- SMTP - Mail Building Block: Template to send emails using SMTP. This is using basic authentication. Avoid this when using SharePoint Online as basic authentication will be disabled in the near future. Consult this Microsoft article for more information.
- Mail Building Block: Template where either SMTP or Graph API can be configured. When the ClientI, the Certificate and From are configured, the Graph API is preferred.
Graph Authentication Methods
When using the Graph API, the Ometa framework will use the certificate configured in the profile.
For more information on how to configure the ClientID and certificate, refer to this article for a guide.
Permission Mail.Send

- Click on the API permissions in the navigation tree on the left of the application registration
