## TYPO3 12.4.16 - 04.07.2024 {#typo3-12-4-16-04-07-2024}

> [!WARNING]
> #1690365240 RuntimeException
> The rendering context of ViewHelper f:link.action is missing a valid request object.

### Installation Overview {#installation-overview}

`<f:link.action>` Viewhelper in Standalone View (Email)

### The Issue {#the-issue}

The error comes when trying to send an email.

### Solution {#solution}

I solved this by setting standaloneView->setRequest, however this method is internal.

```php
use TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Mvc\RequestInterface;

public function sendEmail(RequestInterface $request, ...): bool
{
    $this->standaloneView->setRequest($request);
    // Set sender to default value
}
```

Using the internal method `setRequest()` on the `StandaloneView` is currently the best option.

Another solution would be provide the fully build links as variable assignments to the view.
