Sending Emails from Activities
You can schedule automated emails to be sent when creating an activity.
How Email Scheduling Works
- Select an Email Template: When creating an activity, you can select an email template from the dropdown
- Schedule the Email: The email is queued to be sent at the activity's scheduled date/time
- Automatic Delivery: The system automatically sends the email when the scheduled time arrives
- Activity Note: If the email is scheduled more than 60 seconds in the future, an activity note is created to record that an email was scheduled
Email Status Tracking
Scheduled emails have three statuses:
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Pending | Email is queued and waiting to be sent |
| Sent | Email was successfully delivered |
| Failed | Email could not be sent (will be retried) |
Use Cases
- Appointment confirmations: Schedule a confirmation email to go out when the appointment is created
- Follow-up reminders: Send automatic follow-up emails after meetings
- Pre-meeting prep: Send relevant documents before a scheduled call
Email Templates
Email templates are configured by administrators. If you don't see the template you need, contact your administrator to create one.
