| `sendTimeAttributes` | Object | An object that contains the attributes to include in the send.                                             |

## Example

This sample code initializes the triggeredSend object and sends the email to the specified email address.

```js
var triggeredSend = TriggeredSend.Init("triggeredSend");
var status = triggeredSend.Send("aruiz@example.com");
```

This sample code initializes the triggeredSend object and sends the email to the specified email address. The `Send()` request includes the subscriber's first name and a coupon code as send time attributes.

```js
var triggeredSend = TriggeredSend.Init("triggeredSend");
var status = triggeredSend.Send("aruiz@example.com", {
  FirstName: "Angel",
  CouponCode: "AA1AF",
});
```

The send returns a status of either OK or Error. You can review the LastMessage for more detailed error information. For example, This sample code demonstrates this using the triggeredSend from the previous example.

```js
var status = triggeredSend.Send("aruiz@example.com");
if (status != "OK") {
  var message = TriggeredSend.LastMessage;
}
```
