Approving via email

Question

I would like to generate an email with two buttons approve / decline. On clicking those buttons in the email body , make a call to my web service

I have the js written that uses jsonp to send a CORS request and am happy that works correctly

When embedding the html in the email body, it does nothing , I don't even see the button.. just text

I'm wondering is this scenario even possible or is there another route I should be taking

Answer 1

AJAX Requests cannot be made from Email Clients. They simply don't support that kind of functionality.

Consider

• Generating two separate Web site URLs for Approve and Decline which show a action success message for either actions respectively.
• Or Send the URL for the page that you just created through the mail and let the ajax request take responsibility from there.
