Yes, you can stop automations from notifying the person who triggered them by adding a condition to your automation. In the automation rule, use a "Condition" Block to check if the "Modified By" (or similar field tracking the triggering user) matches the person in the notification field. If it does, set the automation to skip the notification. This ensures the automation won't notify the triggering user. Let me know if you need a detailed walkthrough!

Hello @KColvin_civic1 ,
I'd be happy to help!
There is an option to "unsubscribe" to an automated email.
You can unsubscribe directly from the alert or action you receive, by selecting Unsubscribe in the Don't want to receive these emails? section in the email message.
To subscribe, access the workflow menu, and select Subscribe if you want to receive alerts or automated actions.
