How to change the email recipient of a form submission.

Alicia D

I created a form for employees to use when they request time off. However, I want the email notifications to go to my boss, not myself. Am I able to change this?

Check your automations on the sheet. You should be able to update the email address in whatever automation is being triggered to send out the email.

@John Shane, I set myself up to test before I set me boss up, but I never got an email once I submitted the form. I saw that it populated the sheet, but no email was triggered. Here are the settings I used. Would you mind telling me what to change?

I like to set my trigger for emails to "When rows are added or changed" with whatever the primary field of the sheet to "Any value". "Any field" has the potential to generate a lot of emails, especially is someone is editing anything on the sheet. That should make the emails generate for you.

@John Shane that worked, thank you!

Don't forget to send those emails to your boss. 😉 I've made that mistake before. 😂
