global class myHandler implements Messaging.InboundEmailHandler {
global Messaging.InboundEmailResult handleInboundEmail(Messaging.InboundEmail email, Messaging.InboundEnvelope envelope) {
Messaging.InboundEmailResult result = new Messaging.InboundEmailresult();
List<String> emailPlainTextBody = email.plainTextBody.split('\n');
Leave__c leaveObj = new Leave__c();
leaveObj.StartDate__c = emailPlainTextBody[0];
leaveObj.EndDate__c = emailPlainTextBody[1];
insert leaveObj;
return result;
}
}
2) Now create a Email Service.
That's about it ! Happy Coding!!!
If you try this code then some error will be fired because string value can never be assigned to date variable.
leaveObj.StartDate__c = emailPlainTextBody[0];
leaveObj.EndDate__c = emailPlainTextBody[1];
Instaed of that two line you have to write
leaveObj.StartDate__c = Date.ValueOf(emailPlainTextBody[0]);
leaveObj.EndDate__c = Date.ValueOf(emailPlainTextBody[1]);
