Hello,

I have a scheduled script job that runs daily and any task not updated in 7 days, triggers an event which sends out a notification.

Now I have a requirements to send a follow-up email 5 days after that first notification has been sent.

How can I achieve this please?

yes nothing OOB

you can use Create Record action and set the fields correctly

Thanks @asifnoor so just so I understand this correctly, when my first notification is triggered by the event, the mail script within the notification will run the second event after 5 days?

and will it trigger the same notification again?

and what will the script action do? check if the initial condition of ticket not updated in 7 days is still relevant and then run the second event?

which will trigger the first notification?

what if I want a second notification for the second event?

Hi,

Did you check the flow designer based approach

@Ankur Bawiskar the flow designer approach would be easier but I prefer to use notifications as I can use the email template and it is easier to have dynamic record URLs in notifications.

Hi,

you can trigger event via flow and then notification will still be the same with email script etc

once event is processed the notification triggers

Thanks @Ankur Bawiskar  how do I trigger event from flow designer, can't see an OOB action, I know we can create new event and use that, but what about existing events?
