Creating a shortcut for Gmail canned response - gmail

I'm currently using Gmail Lab feature - canned responses. I have a lot of these canned responses and using their menu to find the right one, proves to be time-consuming. It would be way easier to find a canned response by:
linking a canned response to a keyword
using that keyword in the body or subject field. Something like this.
Would this be possible by using Gmail API or would you suggest another way to do it?

How is this workflow? Add the label "CannedResponses" to all your prepared replies. Then mark each with the particular label the reply applies to, eg 'TestLabel1'. Then as new emails come in you label them, and after that you run a script like this:
function CannedReply() {
var label = "<mylabel>"; //eg <myLabel> = TestLabel1
var myemail = "<me#gmail.com>";
var responsebody = GmailApp.search(
"label:" + label + " label:CannedResponses"
)[0].getMessages()[0].getBody();
var threads = GmailApp.search("label:" + label + " -label:CannedResponses label:unread");
for (var i = 0; i < threads.length; i++) {
for (var j = 0; j < threads[i].getMessageCount(); j++) {
message = threads[i].getMessages()[j];
message.reply("", {htmlBody: responsebody, from: myemail});
GmailApp.markMessageRead(message);
}
}
}

using that keyword in the body or subject field
Autohotkey would support this, it's an app that lets you map key combinations or keywords to text macros. You wouldn't be using any native Gmail features this way, including their canned responses feature, but it might suit your need well enough.

Delete emails from a label after certain number of days

I am a true novice at this. Needed a solution to clean up my gmail.
After searching found the script below. I created filters that send emails to the "delete me" label. I added the script to my projects and published giving it access to my gmail. I also set up a hourly trigger. The filters are working well and the script is running based on the log but no emails are getting deleted.
Can anyone tell me what's wrong? (I made a similar one for a label called "archive me" and this is also not working).
Thank you
function cleanUp() {
var delayDays = 60
var maxDate = new Date();
maxDate.setDate(maxDate.getDate()-delayDays);
var label = GmailApp.getUserLabelByName("delete me");
var threads = label.getThreads();
for (var i = 0; i < threads.length; i++) {
if (threads[i].getLastMessageDate()<maxDate)
{
threads[i].moveToTrash();
}
}
}

Autodesk Design Automation API extract Text from DWG file

I would like to use the Autodesk Design Automation API to extract all Text and Header information from a .dwg file into a json object. Is this possible with the Design Automation API?
Any example would help.
Thankyou
#Kaliph, yes, without a plugin in .NET/C++/Lisp code, it is impossible to extract block attributes by script only. I'd recommend .NET. It would be easier for you to get started with if you are not familiar with C++.
Firstly, I'd suggest you take a look at the training labs of AutoCAD .NET API:
https://www.autodesk.com/developer-network/platform-technologies/autocad
pick the latest version if you installed a latest version of AutoCAD. The main workflow of API is same across different versions, though. you can also pick C++ (ObjectARX) if you like.
In the tutorials above, it demos how to work with block. And the blog below talks about how to get attributes:
http://through-the-interface.typepad.com/through_the_interface/2006/09/getting_autocad.html
I copied here for convenience:
using Autodesk.AutoCAD;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.EditorInput;
namespace MyApplication
{
public class DumpAttributes
{
[CommandMethod("LISTATT")]
public void ListAttributes()
{
Editor ed =
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor;
Database db =
HostApplicationServices.WorkingDatabase;
Transaction tr =
db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction();
// Start the transaction
try
{
// Build a filter list so that only
// block references are selected
TypedValue[] filList = new TypedValue[1] {
new TypedValue((int)DxfCode.Start, "INSERT")
};
SelectionFilter filter =
new SelectionFilter(filList);
PromptSelectionOptions opts =
new PromptSelectionOptions();
opts.MessageForAdding = "Select block references: ";
PromptSelectionResult res =
ed.GetSelection(opts, filter);
// Do nothing if selection is unsuccessful
if (res.Status != PromptStatus.OK)
return;
SelectionSet selSet = res.Value;
ObjectId[] idArray = selSet.GetObjectIds();
foreach (ObjectId blkId in idArray)
{
BlockReference blkRef =
(BlockReference)tr.GetObject(blkId,
OpenMode.ForRead);
BlockTableRecord btr =
(BlockTableRecord)tr.GetObject(
blkRef.BlockTableRecord,
OpenMode.ForRead
);
ed.WriteMessage(
"\nBlock: " + btr.Name
);
btr.Dispose();
AttributeCollection attCol =
blkRef.AttributeCollection;
foreach (ObjectId attId in attCol)
{
AttributeReference attRef =
(AttributeReference)tr.GetObject(attId,
OpenMode.ForRead);
string str =
("\n Attribute Tag: "
+ attRef.Tag
+ "\n Attribute String: "
+ attRef.TextString
);
ed.WriteMessage(str);
}
}
tr.Commit();
}
catch (Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime.Exception ex)
{
ed.WriteMessage(("Exception: " + ex.Message));
}
finally
{
tr.Dispose();
}
}
}
}
I have a sample on making signs on a drawing. It covers getting attributes and modifying attributes:
https://forge.autodesk.com/cloud_and_mobile/2016/02/sign-title-block-of-dwg-file-with-autocad-io-view-data-api.html
And I also have a sample on getting Table cells of a drawing:
https://forge.autodesk.com/blog/get-cell-data-autocad-table-design-automation-api
Hope these could help you to make the plugin for your requirements.
What do you mean by "Header" information? Can you give an example?
Finding an extracting all text objects is relatively easy if you are familiar with the AutoCAD .NET API (or C++ or Lisp).
Here's an example that extracts blocks and layer names:

MS Dynamics CRM 2011, Get subgrid elements from other form

I am new to jscript and have problems to get all elements in a subgrid.
I tried the code from this sites,
Retrieve rows in crm2011 subgrid with JScript
https://lakshmanindian.wordpress.com/2012/05/25/retrieve-subgrid-rows-in-crm-2011-using-jscript/
but get every time the error message:
(Translated)
Error in the user defined event of the field
Field:window
Event: onload
Error: The preference "control" of a undefined or null reference can not be called.
The last code I tried:
var grid = document.getElementById("accountContactsGrid").control;
for (var rowNo = 0; rowNo<grid.getRecordsFromInnerGrid().length; rowNo++)
for (var cellNo = 0; cellNo<grid.getRecordsFromInnerGrid()[rowNo][3].cells.length; cellNo++)
alert(grid.getRecordsFromInnerGrid()[rowNo][3].cells[cellNo].outerText);
I tried it in the entity Account(Company) with the subgrid "accountContactsGrid".
My main goal would be to catch all the assigned elements in the account form and list it under the contacts form. But only if the checkbox "Eko" is activated.
This is my working code so far:
var chkEko = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("testcrm_ekonomi").getValue();
if (chkEko === true)
{
alert("Eko active: " + chkEko);
}
else
{
alert("Eko not active: " + chkEko);
}
After a time and the help of some threads I was able to get information of this grid. But now I have the problem to catch the elements.
I looked up the variable "grid" and found out that variable is an Object.
Since I don't really know the properties of the objects I tried to get it all.
But it seems, that my code doesn't work and I can not understand why.
Here is the code so far:
function subgridItemCount() {
// Get the Subgrid Control
var grid = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get('accountContactsGrid')._control;
var keys = Object.keys(grid);
var getKeys = function(obj){
var keys = [];
for(var key in obj){
keys.push(key);
}
return keys;
}
for(var i = 0; i<keys.length; i++) {
document.write(keys[i]);
}
}
First I wanted to get the property of the object and then the propertyValue.
Or is there an other way to get all values of an object?
It seems like I am on the wrong way. This is what I try to do:
In the account/company form is an existing grid which is called Contacts. In this field are some Contacts assigned (with the button "add existing contact").
Now when I open some Contact there should be a box/grid/iframe with a list of all companies this contact is assigned too.
This list should be linked to the Companies (When i click on them CRM should open the form).
Maybe someone can give me a tip?
My plan was first to look for all companies and then to compare the assigned contacts to the opened one with some Jscript. Then the script should list all matching contacts in the contact form.
This way is not really performant since the script needs to read all companies first. But I don't know an other way...

How to transform a Kentico Email Template without sending it?

My Kentico server is unable to send e-mails, so I have to transform my e-mail using MacroResolver, but send it using some other way.
var clients = new List<Client>();
var macroResolver = MacroResolver.GetInstance();
macroResolver.AddDynamicParameter("clients", clients);
var emailMessage = new EmailMessage {
From = "someone#somewhere.com",
Recipients = "otherone#somewhere.com",
Subject = "Whatever"
};
var template = EmailTemplateProvider.GetEmailTemplate(templateName, siteName);
EmailSender.SendEmailWithTemplateText(siteName, emailMessage, template, macroResolver, true);
In other words, I would like to use Kentico just as a Template Engine. Is there anyway to achieve this?
What SendEmailWithTemplateText method basically does is it fills empty fields of message by its equivalent from a template and resolve macro values in it. If you are only after message body, then you can create the email message by:
emailMessage.Body = macroResolver.ResolveMacros(emailMessage.Body);
emailMessage.PlainTextBody = macroResolver.ResolveMacros(emailMessage.PlainTextBody);
For most scenarios it's also better to tell the resolver to encode resolved values. You can do it by: resolver.EncodeResolvedValues = true;
Also you are passing whole 'clients' collection to the resolver. You'll probably need to take it one by one and generate emails in a loop.

Create a Google Task from a email

I was looking the way to create a Task from an email at my Google Account with a filter. I've read this tutorial and it worked like a charm: http://www.pipetree.com/qmacro/blog/2011/10/automated-email-to-task-mechanism-with-google-apps-script/
The only bad thing is that the script creates a task with the subject of the message, and it's not really descriptive for me, because they are automatic messages, and all of them have the same subject.
I want the Task Title be a specific line of the email body, can anybody helpme with this?
Yes, basically you would get the message body and extract what you need from it. I'm not sure about the structure of your email but you need something in there that tells you the start and end of the task title, once you tell me what it is i can incorporate it in to the code. For now this is how you would set the body as the title.
var message = thread.getMessages()[0]; // get first message
var messagebody = message.getBody();
var body_array = messagebody.split('Sender:');
var taskTitle = '';
if( body_array.length < 2 )
taskTitle = 'No title specified in email after Sender:';
else
{
var text = body_array[1];
taskTitle = text.split('<br />')[0].trim();
}
