Weekly Automated Emails?

    How can we schedule and send out weekly automated emails with submission data using JotForm? Our forms (once we sign up for the $99/month) will be encrypted to protect our users sensitive data. Can we automate emails to go to individual customers in mass through the JotForms system or do we need integrate into another system to accomplish this?

    Hi Dexter,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Yes, it's possible to send multiple emails on different schedules. First, please create multiple autoresponders according to your needs. To do this:

    1. On the form builder, click the Settings tab.
    2. On the menu on the left side, click Emails.
    3. Click the + Add an email and select the auto-responder email.
    4. Edit the email template according to your needs.

    Next is to set up a Condition using the Change Email Recipient conditional logic. To do this. I'll show you how:

    • In Form Builder, in the orange navigation bar at the top of the page, click on  Settings.
    • In the menu on the left side of the page, click on Conditions.
    • In the list that pops up, click on Change E-mail Recipient and set a logical condition like the ones below:

    After opening the settings of your Autoresponder, click the Advanced tab. There you will see the Send Emails Later option.

    • Right away – this is the default option, Autoresponder emails are sent right after the submission is received.
    • 7 Days – email is sent 7 days after the submission date.
    • 14 Days – email is sent 14 days after the submission date.
    • On a later date – after clicking this option, you can choose your preferred date of email to be sent from the opening date field.
    • CustomDateFields – these are your date fields that are on the form. By choosing them, your form’s respondents can specify the date they would like to receive the email. If you have another date field on your form, it will also appear on your Send Emails Later dropdown list.
