Hi!

I am trying to execute the TriggeredEmails on the backend.
The process here is to email a Contact everytime they submitted a form.
Below are my codes:

import { contacts, triggeredEmails } from 'wix-crm-backend';
export async function sendEmailToContact(emailToFind,fName,emailID) {

  let contactId;

  let options = { 
  variables: {
    "firstName": fName
  } 
};
  const queryResults = await contacts.queryContacts()
    .eq('info.emails.email', emailToFind)
    .find();
  const contactsWithEmail = queryResults.items;

  if (contactsWithEmail.length >= 1) {

    console.log('Found contact');
    contactId = contactsWithEmail[0]._id;

  } else {

    console.log('No contacts found');
    // Handle when no contacts are found

  }

 try {
    await triggeredEmails.emailContact(emailID, contactId, options);
    console.log('Email sent to contact');
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    // Handle the error
  }
}

It is producing an error on the “const queryResults = await contacts.queryContacts()” part and I do not know why.

I just copied it from this link. and added an email_ID and options in its parameters.

Your code is correct, it will not work on the live site because query contacts has a permission level. To override this setting change the code to this:

const queryResults = await contacts . queryContacts ()
. eq ( ‘info.emails.email’ , email )
. find ({ suppressAuth: true });
const contactsWithEmail = queryResults.items ;
console . log ( contactsWithEmail )

Thanks! I will do this.
