# Send Email

### Send an Email to a Recipient

Once you click on the box, you will be able to fully customize the email you would like to send.&#x20;

You can choose either from a contact or add the email address of the recipient manually. Then you can add a subject, e.g. "Your order confirmation".

You can fully customize the email body, e.g. enlarge a sentence, define headings, etc.

### Sending values collected in the conversation

In the Email, you are able to use parameter values collected in the conversation, simply use $PARAM\_NAME in the Email body.

E.g.&#x20;

*Dear $CUSTOMER\_FIRSTNAME,*&#x20;

*I have updated account Number $ACCOUNT\_NUMBER with the renewal of your subscription.*

*Have a good day!*&#x20;

### Sending Parameter Attachments via Email

If you want to send a recorded user input via email, you can simply add the recording parameter below the email body. It will send the recording in file format for ease of use.

Select the correct node and either add the recordings link from the call reports or leave it empty and it will automatically fill in the value after the conversation.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://studio.docs.ai.vonage.com/sms/nodes/actions/send-email.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
