Hi there,
The most easiest way may be the old Call API. Copy the Call API files to any directory of the Users PC. the call api ini file contains the user, dep and pw. Password can be encryped. Place a bat file in that directory that has a content like this:
"C:\CALLAPI\ucxbxxxc.exe" SCRIPT=SET_VARA_VALUE.txt
the script file has a content like this:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
:pset &my_value# = "Hello World"
:SET &RUNID= ACTIVATE_UC_OBJECT(SC#27.SCRI.PUT_VALUE_TO_VARA,,,,,PASS_VALUES)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
or
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
:PUT_VAR VARA.BLABLA , "KEY1" , "value1"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A user needs to be created in the corresponding AE client, that has the priviledge Call Api and the rigth to start a certain object or write a value to a VARA. The e-mail the user receives contains a link to his call-api-bat-file like so:
file://c:\CALLAPI\call-api.bat
That would be my quick and dirty solution
Cheers

Subject: Is there a way to execute a UC4/Automic Object using a email
We are trying to streamline a process for one of our end users. We create a JP and currently are using a CALL which send the user an email and once they log into UC4/Automic their response to the CALL (yes/no) triggers or blocks the next object.
The user asked if there is away for them to reply to the email, instead of logging into UC4/Automic?
