Email notification doesn't send on insert

Hi All,

I have an email notification that are set to send when a new record is created on a certain table.  

When a record is inserted, nothing happens and there is no record in the outbox or email logs. If I change the notification to send on update, it work as expected, sending when the record is updated. But nothing happens on insert. I removed the filter conditions without any success. Does anyone have some insight into why this notification would work on update but not insert?

Thanks in advance.

I already found the problem. The watch list field was empty when the notification was checked. Therefore, when trying to send the notification, "Who will receive" was empty.

Thank you so much!

Hi Dennis,

 

Can you check if the 'Send to Event Creator' option is true. Also, try adding some weight value to the notification.

Hi Dennis,

What are the other conditions applied on that notification?

Can you share screenshot here?

Event parm 1 contains recipient checkbox should be true

Send to event creator should be true

Mark Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
