SINGLE_EMAIL_LIMIT_EXCEEDED, Failed to send email: []:

Hi,

 

Below is the snippet of the code that I am using to send single e-mails to the users in my organization. For the first we hit a daily limit of 500 e-mails and the users are unable to approve the process and also receoive the e-mails. My requirement is not to send external e-mails but to send e-mails to users in my organization. Do i have to make any changes in the code to avoid hitting the limit?

 

I came to know that the single e-mail limit will be hit only when we try to send e-mail to external e-mail addresses. Do I have to make any changes in my query to prevent this scenario?

 

Thank You in advance for the help.

Using setToAddresses is what's using up your daily limits. Use setTargetObjectId(s), passing in a user id or list of user IDs. Check the docs for details.

Thank You for the prompt response. I have corrected my code (marked in red). Is this the change that we need to avoid limit?

 

Thank You.

Yes, that solution should work, according to the documentation. I've not used it yet myself, so I can't confirm this.

How it is possible ? without specifying setToAddresses.  I did same way you suggested, but  I got this error REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING, Missing target address (target, to, cc, bcc)

 

can you suggest me to overcome SINGLE_EMAIL_LIMIT_EXCEEDED error

 

Thanks and Regards,

Haripriya.
