How do you send email notifications from within my cloud cBot?
24 Mar 2025, 10:47

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble sending email notifications using Notifications.sendEmail().

I have the email settings saved in my cTrader desktop, “Enable Email”, “Enable SSL”, “Server (SMTP)” etc.

When I run my cBot in the cloud, I call Notifications.sendEmail() from within onStart().

The bot then logs out an error saying “Email notifications are not enabled”

Any ideas,

Thanks,

Kyle

It sure is :-)

I could only find the post via Google with the exact date you mentioned. Is there a more advanced search here on cTrader?:

This is all I see:

I don't use their forum search because I'm sure, like cTrader, it has lots of issues :-P

I always use Google (since it'll capture pages from other sites as well), and you have to use more than 1 word.

Awesome, I'll search that way in the future.
