Which two statements are true about the APEX_MAIL API?

AYou can add files as attachments to your emails using the APEX_MAIL package.

BYou can receive emails using the APEX_MAIL package in an Oracle APEX application.

CYou can send emails using the APEX_MAIL package from an Oracle APEX application.

DThe APEX_MAIL package supports sending emails only to Oracle database users.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, C

The APEX_MAIL API facilitates email functionality:

A . You can add files as attachments: Using APEX_MAIL.ADD_ATTACHMENT (e.g., APEX_MAIL.ADD_ATTACHMENT(p_mail_id, p_attachment, p_filename)), you can attach BLOBs (e.g., PDFs) to emails.

C . You can send emails: APEX_MAIL.SEND (e.g., APEX_MAIL.SEND(p_to => 'user@example.com', p_body => 'Hello')) sends emails from APEX, leveraging the configured mail server.

B . You can receive emails: False; APEX_MAIL is send-only; receiving requires custom integration (e.g., IMAP).

D . Only to Oracle database users: False; emails can go to any valid address, not just database users.

Pitfall: Ensure the mail queue is processed (APEX_MAIL.PUSH_QUEUE) for timely delivery.
