Hello Community,
I have a requirement to send an email notification to group of users when kb_category is "abc".
I have created a email notification on knowledge table to run on Insert.
Conditions:
Workflow is published
category is Abc
Active is true
The notification is not being triggered. can anyone assist?
Thankyou

Sending the notification "on insert" will only cause it to send when the record (kb_knowledge) is initially created. I doubt you are going straight to Published, so you probably want something like this for your conditions:
Workflow > Changes To > Published
Category (kb_category) > IS > Abc
Watch out... there are probably two fields labeled Category (category and kb_category).

Thanks for replying Tim.
I have tried changing the condition from "workflow is published" to "workflow changes to published" I still see no email notification triggered.
I have selected kb_category in conditions.
Do I have to create an event --> scheduled job and a notification to run when event is fired?
But this would not send any email as soon as Knowledge article is published.
Thankyou
