Set External Role Contacts

If the template that uses an external request scenario also uses an External Data role, the users assigned to this role must also be set as external role contact for the template.

NOTE: If the sender is an external user who is not registered in the platform, that email must be added to the platform. Refer to Add Email Addresses for External Users for more information.
