Sendinblue attachment

Question

I try to send attachment pdf file. I get the email but no attachmetn. I have try to use https://github.com/sendinblue/APIv3-php-library/blob/master/docs/Model/SendSmtpEmail.mdenter

 $sendSmtpEmail = new \SendinBlue\Client\Model\SendSmtpEmail(); 
    $sendSmtpEmail['to'] = array(array('email'=>'email@email.com'));
    $sendSmtpEmail['templateId'] = 39;
    $sendSmtpEmail['params'] = array(
    'NUMEROFACTURE'=> "12345",
    'CODECLIENT' => "1234567",
    'TOSEND' => "email1@email.net",
    'MONTANTFACTURE'=>  number_format(12, 2, ',', ' '),
    );
    $attachement = new \SendinBlue\Client\Model\SendSmtpEmailAttachment();
    $attachement['url']= __DIR__'/facture/Facture-'.$row["ClePiece"].'.pdf';
    $attachement['name']= 'Facture-'.$row["ClePiece"].'.pdf';
    $attachement['content']= "utf-8";
    $sendSmtpEmail['attachment']= $attachement;
    $sendSmtpEmail['headers'] = array('Content-Type'=>'application/pdf','Content-Disposition'=>'attachment','filename'=>'Facture-'.$row["ClePiece"].'.pdf',"charset"=>"utf-8");


$config = SendinBlue\Client\Configuration::getDefaultConfiguration()->setApiKey('api-key', 'YOUR_API_KEY');
$apiInstance = new SendinBlue\Client\Api\SMTPApi(new GuzzleHttp\Client(),$config);

try {
    $result = $apiInstance->sendTransacEmail($sendSmtpEmail);
    print_r($result);
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'Exception when calling SMTPApi->sendTransacEmail: ', $e->getMessage(), PHP_EOL;
}

`$attachement['url']` must be an absolute url of the attachment (**NO** a local file). Check the [SendInBlue Documentation][https://github.com/sendinblue/APIv3-php-library/blob/master/docs/Model/SendSmtpEmailAttachment.md] — Teocci, Jan 24 '19 at 07:03
If the file is in a private server, can that be the problem? for example: http://192.168.10.01:91/facture/Facture-'.$row["ClePiece"].'.pdf' — Elierak26, Jan 24 '19 at 07:14
Please, read the documentation, you have two ways to attach a file by `url` or by `content`. Remember that the content is a *Base64 encoded chunk data of the attachment generated on the fly*. You are wrongly assigning `"utf-8"` to the content. This mean you need to convert the pdf data into a base64 chunk data. `$attachment_content = chunk_split(base64_encode($contentPdf));` like this. — Teocci, Jan 24 '19 at 07:19

According to the SendSmtpEmailAttachment documentation, you have two ways to attach a file using a url or a content.

url | Absolute url of the attachment (no local file).

content | Base64 encoded chunk data of the attachment generated on the fly

You are wrongly assigning "utf-8" to the content. This mean you need to convert the pdf data into a base64 chunk data. First, get the pdf path in your server as $pdfdocPath. Get the pdf content using file_get_contents method and encode it using base64_encode method. Finally, split the content in small chunks using chunk_split as shown in the next snippet:

$sendSmtpEmail = new \SendinBlue\Client\Model\SendSmtpEmail(); 
$sendSmtpEmail['to'] = array(array('email'=>'email@email.com'));
$sendSmtpEmail['templateId'] = 39;
$sendSmtpEmail['params'] = array(
'NUMEROFACTURE'=> "12345",
'CODECLIENT' => "1234567",
'TOSEND' => "email1@email.net",
'MONTANTFACTURE'=>  number_format(12, 2, ',', ' '),
);
$pdfdocPath = __DIR__.'/facture/Facture-'.$row["ClePiece"].'.pdf';
$b64Doc = chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents($pdfdocPath)));
$attachement = new \SendinBlue\Client\Model\SendSmtpEmailAttachment();
$attachement['name']= 'Facture-'.$row["ClePiece"].'.pdf';
$attachement['content']= $b64Doc;
$sendSmtpEmail['attachment']= $attachement;
$sendSmtpEmail['headers'] = array('Content-Type'=>'application/pdf','Content-Disposition'=>'attachment','filename'=>'Facture-'.$row["ClePiece"].'.pdf',"charset"=>"utf-8");

Update:

I checked the APIv3-php-library source code and I found that the constructor will do the validation of name and content.

$dataEmail = new \SendinBlue\Client\Model\SendEmail();
$dataEmail['emailTo'] = ['abc@example.com', 'asd@example.com'];
// PDF wrapper
$pdfDocPath = __DIR__.'/facture/Facture-'.$row["ClePiece"].'.pdf';
$content = chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents($pdfDocPath)));
// Ends pdf wrapper
$attachment_item = array(
        'name'=>'Facture-'.$row["ClePiece"].'.pdf',
        'content'=>$content
);
$attachment_list = array($attachment_item);
// Ends pdf wrapper

$dataEmail['attachment']    = $attachment_list;

$templateId = 39;

$config = SendinBlue\Client\Configuration::getDefaultConfiguration()->setApiKey('api-key', 'YOUR_API_KEY');

$apiInstance = new SendinBlue\Client\Api\SMTPApi(new GuzzleHttp\Client(),$config);
try {
    $result = $apiInstance->sendTemplate($templateId, $dataEmail);
    print_r($result);
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'Exception when calling SMTPApi->sendTemplate: ', $e->getMessage(), PHP_EOL;
}

I have try this but it's not working. I don't know if the problem is in the \SendinBlue\Client\Api\SMTPApi() Method sendTransacEmail. When I try to send attachement here : https://developers.sendinblue.com/v3.0/reference#sendtransacemail with sendtransacEmail it's not working. — Elierak26, Jan 24 '19 at 13:26
It is jut not working or you got an error? If you get an error let me know. — Teocci, Jan 24 '19 at 22:11
i don't have error, i get the email but no attachment. I think so, it's api bug. I have try to use sendinblue Api online to test sendtransacEmail() function : https://developers.sendinblue.com/v3.0/reference#sendtransacemail i don't get the attachement. But when I try to use : https://developers.sendinblue.com/v3.0/reference#sendtemplate-1 , that send me an attachement ( 'url attachment'). When i use content (base64) , it's not working. I don't know why, i dont get any error. Now, i change my code to use sendTemplate() with url attachment. — Elierak26, Jan 25 '19 at 06:25
It's working now when i use url attachment. I have to try content attachment if it's working too. — Elierak26, Jan 25 '19 at 06:50
I have send email to sendinblue contact about this problem and when they replay me, i will tell you what the problem. They tell me, no error un the code, but they don't know why that's not working — Elierak26, Jan 25 '19 at 17:31
Then could you please mark my answer as the answer because it shows how to attach a pdf file using `content` by converting the pdf in base64 and slicing it in small chunks properly. Thank you — Teocci, Jan 25 '19 at 23:44
That's answer are not valid now because the APi have some problem. The send me a response about sendTemplate() to use content. like this $b64Doc = chunk_split(base64_encode($data)); $attachment_array = array('content'=>$b64Doc,'name'=>'Facture'.$row["ClePiece"].'.pdf'); $dataEmail['attachment'] = array($attachment_array); — Elierak26, Jan 28 '19 at 14:43
This approach also works for a ruby lib - `APIv3-ruby-library` — Roman Malkevych, Jan 29 '20 at 17:59

According to the documentaiton SMTPApi->sendTransacEmail function gets SendSmtpEmail object. That object has restrictions for the attachment attribute:

If templateId is passed and is in New Template Language format then only attachment url is accepted. If template is in Old template Language format, then attachment is ignored.

But SMTPApi->sendTemplate function don't have this restriction.

    $credentials = SendinBlue\Client\Configuration::getDefaultConfiguration()->setApiKey('api-key', 'YOUR-KEY');

    $apiInstance = new SendinBlue\Client\Api\TransactionalEmailsApi(new GuzzleHttp\Client(),$credentials);
