setup:

Opportunities are related in a MDR to children__c object. When my opp reaches a stage, an email alert (via workflow) gets sent out with the opp info. I want to include a list of urls for the children record related to that master opp. I did some reading- and it looks like custom components do the trick.

questions:

1. is this the right approach?
2. how do i pass params to the custom compoenent from the email template?

EDIT- Code:

Apex Class

    public with sharing class BenefitChecklistEmailTemplateHelper {
        public list <Benefit_Checklist__c> checklists;
        public String oppId {get; set;}
        
        public BenefitChecklistEmailTemplateHelper(){
            system.debug('oppid :' +oppId);
            this.checklists = [select id, name from Benefit_Checklist__c where Opportunity__c = :oppId];
            getChecklists();
        }   
        public list<Benefit_Checklist__c> getChecklists(){
             return checklists;
        }
    }
