Show solution

A routine is saved correctly at the users account. The first component is a timer condition. The second component is the Finance operation "Stockprice by Company Name" with "Apple" in the field "Company Name" and a result variable starting with a "$". The third component is a messaging operation "Send Email" with a valid email address and an arbitrary subject and message text with at least on containing the stock price result variable starting with a "$". The routine JSON of one possible solution would look like this:
