Notification emails
Notification emails make it easy to stay on top of form submissions without constantly checking for new entries. As soon as someone fills out a form, an automated email can land in the right inbox, keeping things moving smoothly.
You can set up multiple notification emails and use conditional logic to determine when each one should be sent based on specific conditions or rules
Whether it’s a customer inquiry, job application, or support request, automated emails help you respond faster and keep everything organised.
Set up notification emails
- Go to Form Settings > Notifications .
- Under Email Notifications, tick Enable Email Notifications.
- Enter the email address that you want the form responses sent to, e.g. your email address or an alternative monitored inbox.
Note: Multiple recipient email addresses may be entered by using a comma to separate each email address, e.g. john@yourcompany.com,sarah@yourcompany.com,admin@yourcompany.com - Enter the email subject that you want to appear as the ‘Subject:’ on the email, e.g. New Submission Received
- In the email body, you can design your message using the rich-text editor toolbar. To personalise the content, click insert form answers and copy/paste the relevant short-codes into your message, e.g. {{first name}}
