Is there a way to include the Published page when you send email as part of workflow ?

[mani kj]

I have Comala publishing plugin enabled as part of an approval workflow . When a page is approved , I automatically publish them to new space and email the author & approvers. 

In this email, currently I'm including @page@ option to say what page is published from Draft space.  Problem is when the author clicks on the page link from email, it is taking them to Draft space. Is there a parameter in workflow which can represent the page link of Published space ?

Hi @mani kj 

Welcome to the community! In this case you need to add a custom workflow to your published space to generate the notifications. This workflow does not need to have states, For example:

{workflow:name=Notifications}
    {trigger:pagecreated}
        {send-email:user=confluence-users|subject=New page added to approved space}
             @page@ has been added to the approved space
        {send-email}
    {trigger}
    {trigger:pageupdated}
        {send-email:user=confluence-users|subject=Page update in approved space}
             @page@ has been updated in approved space
        {send-email}
    {trigger}
{workflow}

Note that you'll need additional events for blog posts (newscreated and newsupdated) if required,  see https://wiki.comalatech.com/display/CDML/Events#Events-Contentchanges
