Trigger Email on IVR Menu Selection

[integrationit]

I want to trigger one email from asterisk IVR if

IVR Menu = Press 1 to Buy Battery
So the moment customer Presses 1, i want Asterisk to send an email with the following information

Subject= New Order - Battery
Body = Customer Number and Order information Like Battery order

Can someone give me a hint about it

Sure, In the IVR, make option one a custom dialplan linked to the IVR, using the custom destination application. The custom destination (dialplan) should trigger the email, then complete the next phase of the call treatment for the caller. Another option would be to trigger the email as part of the hangup.

Sending an email after sending calls

Hello Experts, I would allow FreePBX to send an email after sending a call to some particular numbers. I am familiar with Asterisk open source and did this before. Now I am still new to FreePBX. Would you please advice in which context shall I write the dial plan? And which application shall I use for sending emails?
