I built a functional VF Template with Event as RelatedTo - can I use it without a Custom Controller?
Hey there,
still a beginner: I built an VF Email Template that has a Contact as Recipient and an Event as RelatedTo - the template is functional and generates an ics file dynamically.
Actually, I would like to use it like the other templates, without having to write (and test) a custom controller.
My initial attempt was to use something like
XY.salesforce.com/email/author/emailauthor.jsp?p2_lkid=[CONTACT_ID]&p3_lkid=[EVENT_ID]&template_id=00Xb0000000IReQ&new_template=true
but that throws an error as Salesforce does not allow for an Event to be the p3_lkid/WhatId (Opportuinities, Cases, etc are ok, though)...
I have googled quite a lot but found no solution so far, everyone seems conftonted with the same problem. Please tell me there is a workaround... :-)

I do not think this is possible with out the Controller,
See some sample code in the below links,
