Schedule Bulk email

Hello everyone,

In Quince version, we are trying to enable Send a Scheduled Email Message to Course Participants. I’m unable to find that checkbox in the instructor interface but i’m seeing all the logic(backend) that sends scheduled emails.

https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/open-edx-building-and-running-a-course/en/latest/manage_live_course/bulk_email.html#send-a-scheduled-email-message-to-course-participants

Could someone please share the patch for this feature?

Thanks in advance.

I don’t know much detail on this, but I know a new MFE for bulk email came out in Palm. This may help? Open edX Palm Release - Developer & Operator Notes — Latest documentation

Hi Sarina,

This is the feature I’m looking for. I understand from that This feature requires a cron service which isn’t currently included in Tutor.

I tried to enable using celerybeat schedule. But this is not working. Could you please suggest an alternative way to run periodically(Can be every minute or every hour)?

CELERYBEAT_SCHEDULE[‘schedule-emails’] = {
‘task’: ‘lms.djangoapps.instructor_task.api.process_scheduled_instructor_tasks’,
‘schedule’: 60,
}
