Set up a “Send an email when a transferred Form is received” Workflow to automatically send an email as a result of a Form transfer. You can set your trigger to activate either each time a Form is transferred for any Template, or for only a specific Template.
You can also set your trigger to activate if the Form is transferred to a specific user or group.
In this Workflow you’ll add message body text during your Send Email action. If you want to reference Form or metadata information in your message body, include Workflow variables.
🗒️ Note: Links cannot be included in any email or text messages you dispatch from your GoFormz account. This includes any alphanumeric content that resembles a link (ex. abc123.abc).
