Updated over 2 months ago

The ability to get emails for each new form submission is known as email notifications. You can even choose which email templates to send to your team members.

To keep track of form submissions, you can configure email notifications for yourself and your team.

To receive email notifications, follow these steps:

1- Activate email notifications

Go to the Notify tab in the editor and enable the option to receive email notifications. This will ensure you get an alert every time a form is submitted.

2- Specify your email address

In the Send email to field, enter the email address where you'd like to receive submission notifications.

You’ll be notified of every form response.

3- Forward notifications to your team

To notify your team, add up to five email addresses in the Forward submit email to field.

Make sure to separate each email address with a space so that everyone stays informed.

Generate PDFs of submissions

In the Notify tab, toggle the option to generate PDFs of submissions. This feature is great for creating downloadable or printable copies of submission data.

⭐ Pro tips:

You can attach these PDF files to the email notifications by adding the variable ID of pdf_link to your email template, ensuring submitters or admins receive a copy directly via email.

Set SMTP and your custom sender address

Add a unique sender email address if you want to do this. Your SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) connections are all that are required to make it happen.
