Email Notification within EA
« on: October 13, 2009, 03:48:18 pm »
Can someone provide an outline of what APIs, etc can be used to develop a tool for email notifications within EA for tasks assigned to individuals, etc. I am managing a project and this would greatly help.

Great idea. If you succeed it would be great to share it with us.

The EA SDK delivers several callback methods when something has changed. Your add-in needs to subscribe to those callback and can then react accordingly.
This can lead to sending emails or generating RSS feeds or twitter updates, whatever you feel is appropriate.

HTH a little bit.
