I am using a List files(s) task. I have configured the specifications correctly. How do I send that list attached to an email?

Well, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't and I get this:

"[Error in SetVariables, string: {TASK(8a20e5c2-5bf5-47b2-84f8-7ea4a72e3419,StdOut)}, err: Array cannot be null.
Parameter name: bytes]"

Is it a Email Task or Email Notification?

I am not seeing why you get this only some times. Perhaps you can find a way to reproduce this - is it only when there is no result? But if you are referring to the previous Task use this Variable instead:

{TASK(PrevTask,StdOut)}

I thought I already posted, this, but apparently not:

I found out it only happens when I click Test Job, and then every time.

Could you export this particular Job and all dependencies and send to support@visualcron.com. Then we can probably reproduce and fix it right away. Thanks!

We have investigated this. The main problem is that when using the "Test" button we create a temporary Job with a new Id. The reason for this is that it should not conflict with any existing setting. What happens then is that the Variable you use refer to another object.

We have a made a workaround for 6.1.2. To test right now use the normal "Run Job".

Thank you for the report.
