How to send email to contacts filtered by one account field | Link

Hello Olivier, I have the same need but I don´t have any knowledge nor experience with Zoho functions. I saw your code and I believe that it could work great for me with a couple of changes. My goal is to filter the contacts that have the field "Membership status" in the Account module "Active"
I created the same field, "Membership status", in Account and in Contacts, like you suggested.
Like your "-aircraft" field, mine "Membership status" is also a dropdown list with "Active" and "Inactive".
The parameter that I think I should use is the "Account name" (which is the name of the fields I have for the Company name, since I kept the original set up of Zoho CRM).

I tried to adapt your code to my needs but when I save it I receive an error message saying "Failed to save the function
Variable 'Account_name' is not defined Line Number: 2".
Could you please help me to go forward? I´m copying the code variation that I used from yours.


// Get Account Info
thisAccount = zoho.crm.getRecordById("Accounts",Account_name);
// Get Membership status field data
accountMembership_status = thisAccount.get("Membership_status");
// Get all contacts
relatedContacts = zoho.crm.getRelatedRecords("Contacts","Accounts",Account_name);
// Loop & write has Membership status field to all related Contacts
for each thisContact in relatedContacts
{
update = zoho.crm.updateRecord("Contacts",thisContact.get("id"),{"Membership_status":accountMembership_status});
}

Probably I will receive more errors for lines below, but I didn´t know how to continue.
Thanks in advance.
