The Virtual Email Receiver integration converts emails into alarms or events in evalink. Emails can be authenticated via generated tokens or a group of authorized senders.
The Virtual Email Receiver is ideal when you need to quickly trigger an alarm on the go, or in the case of legacy technical equipment, which has one single functionality: to send an email to a specific address in case of malfunction. For example, when the cold chain of cooling equipment in a warehouse is damaged, an email will automatically be sent to evalink, triggering the appropriate workflow actions.
- Trigger alarms and events from legacy systems with no other means of connectivity.
- Automatize the process of conversion of emails into alarms.
- Ensures that emails are converted into alarms or events and assigned to a specific team that will follow the appropriate escalation procedure.
