How to Enable Email Notifications for Form/Survey Submissions

Email notifications for form and survey submissions offer significant benefits by streamlining communication and keeping your team informed in real time. This feature ensures that you never miss a new submission, allowing for quicker responses and improved engagement. In this article, we’ll dive into the advantages of email notifications and provide a step-by-step guide on how to set up and optimize this feature for your business.

Setting Up Email Notifications #

To start benefiting from email notifications, follow these easy steps:

Access Forms or Surveys #

Navigate to the ‘Sites’ tab from the left sidebar and then select the ‘Forms/Survey’ tab from the top menu. For the purpose of this guide, we’ll focus on forms.

Create or Edit a Form #

Click on “Add Form” to create a new form from scratch or select an existing form to edit.

Enable Notifications #

Now that you have accessed the form/survey builder, click on the bell icon in the top menu to access the notification settings, then turn the toggle on to activate email notifications.

Configure Notification Settings #

A few options will now appear allowing you to configure the notification settings. Begin by customizing the subject line as needed to fit your preferences. By default, the name of the form will appear in this field.

In the “Email To” field, enter the email addresses of the recipients who should receive the notification. The first email address is designated for the ‘To’ field. Any subsequent email addresses will be included in the ‘Cc’ field.

Next, customize the default Reply-To email address. You can use {{contact.email}} to enable replies to the contact who submits the form.

Finally, include a sender name if needed. If you decide not to update this field, your business/sub-account name will be used.

Once everything is set up, click ‘Save’ to apply your settings.

Don’t forget to save your form after completing the setup process!

From this point forward, every time your form or survey receives a submission, your designated team members will receive an email notification summarizing the submitted information. By automating email notifications, your team can stay informed at all times and respond quickly to new leads or survey responses. This leads to faster engagement and better client interactions, which can improve your business’s overall responsiveness and customer experience.
