SCPI Alert Notification on Error Messages

[stephen_xue]

There are a few ways to supervise error messages occurred in SCPI. The recommended way is via Solution Manager. What if you do not have a SolMan?

Here is a cheap and simple way.

1. Download the SCPI iFlow

2. Import the iflow into your package

it will be like this.

 

3. Prepare for these information

Image1	Company Logo	if haven't, replaced by a blank image
Image2	Company slogon logo	if haven't, replaced by a blank image
Mail Server Address	could be either on the internet or via HANA cloud connector	Mandatory
CPI Credential	username/password maintained in CPI	Mandatory
CPI talent URL	A URL in form of https://<talent id>-tmn.hci.ap1.hana.ondemand.com/api/v1	Mandatory
Email From	the virtual sender email address	Mandatory
Email To	The alert notification receiver	Mandatory
Company Address	Used in the alert signature	Optional, if multiple lines, please separated with <br/>
Company Website	Used in the alert signature	Optional

 

4. Convert Image into base64 string

there are quite a few websites providing free online service. this is the one I am using:

https://www.base64-image.de/

drag and drop the image

 

you will get a string starting with 'data:image/png;base64'. click button to copy the string

 

5. fill the base64 strings of two images files into iflow configuration respectively.

6. Fill up rest of the configurations to the iFlow

Here is an example of mine.

 

7. Once it has been scheduled, you will receive a mail notification for all of the error messages occurred with in last 24 hours like this.

 

when the hyper link has been clicked, you can view the techncial log of that perticular error message as below

 

8. configurations on the mail body

this is how the configured information has been mapped to the mail body receivd.
