Frontend Can't Trigger Invoice Email with PDF Attachment

[ahmadasakra]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I implemented functionality for sending invoices via email in the backend, specifically in invoiceController/mail.js. The backend processes the request and sends the email successfully with Postman. However, the frontend cannot trigger this functionality in invoice ream, which prevents the user from sending invoices directly. Additionally, the email should include the PDF file of the invoice as an attachment, but this integration is not fully working from the frontend.

Describe the solution you'd like
I need the frontend to integrate seamlessly with the backend to enable invoice emailing. This involves:

the button in the invoice item that contais send via mail.
A frontend API call that correctly triggers the backend functionality in invoiceController/mail.js.
Passing the required data (e.g., invoice ID, recipient email) from the frontend to the backend.
Ensuring the PDF file of the invoice is properly generated and attached to the email.

Hi @ahmadasakra i am trying to triangulate this bug this button highlighted is sending an email with an attached pdf invoice.Did someone work on the bug already or perhaps you are referring to a different bug.

[ahmadasakra]

No, I mean this error. When I want to send the invoice on PDf, it cannot be sent. I tried to implement it and it worked correctly in the Backend via Postman, but when I connect it to the Frontend, I always face a problem.
