emailMember( )


Sends a triggered email to the current member.

To learn more about triggered emails, see:

Before calling emailMember() you need to set up at least 1 triggered email.

This method only sends an email to the current member. You can get that member's ID using the _id property of the currentMember (SDK | Velo).

If the specified triggered email contains variables, you can specify values for those variables using the optional options parameter. The values specified must be strings. If the object you specify for the options parameter does not contain a key:value pair for a variable in a triggered email, the fallback value defined when creating a triggered email is inserted in place of the variable.

Note that creating a triggered email generates a code snippet for each email template. The generated code includes the email's ID and keys for all the email's variable names. Copy and paste the snippet into your code and define values for the toUser property and for each variable key. To learn how to use the generated snippet in your code, see How to Send a Triggered Email with Code.
