OKMMail
Basics
Section titled “Basics”In almost all methods you’ll see a parameter named “mailId”. The value of this parameter can be a valid mail UUID.
Regarding the parameter named “fldId”, the value of this parameter can be a valid folder UUID or record node.
Also, in all methods you’ll see a parameter named “token”. Because the Cron Task is executed in the background without authentication, the methods used in this scenario might use the token parameter. From the default application execution context you must use the “null” value, which indicates that the application must use the “user session”.
