Automated secure email transmission

I see how a secure email can be sent via the web client by an appropriately authorized web user. Is there any way to automate the process of sending a secure email with attachments of sensitive data directly in GoAnywhere (Services and/or Director) as if the web user had done it manually? Essentially, I need to attach files that have been uploaded into the GaA Services environment to an email and send it securely to an external email address. Your help and guidance is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Ken.

GAD has a Resource called GHTTPS. This is an HTTPS connection to your GAS installation.

Upon receipt of a file (however it's uploaded) it's easy to trigger a GAD Project to process that file. That GAD Project could include a GHTTPS task that makes a connection back to GAS, then sends the attached file out via Secure Mail ... instigated by the GAD Project automatically.

In pseudo terms ...
Code: Select all
SFTP(Put) -> GAS
GAS(Trigger) -> GAD
GAD(Project) -> GHTTPS(Task) -> GAS
GAS(Secure Mail) -> External Email

I think that was the clue I needed to put me on the right track.

Thanks!
