Automation: Send to contacts in a cell
I'm building an automation to send a reminder to contacts in a cell but it doesn't let select the cell with a dropdown. Is there a workaround?

Hi Vanessa,
Try converting your column's type from "Dropdown List" into a "Contact List".
Right click the column and click "Edit Column Properties" and then set the "Column Type" to "Contact List".
Then you can update your automation to send reminders to the entire contact list, or contacts within the contact list cell.
