I have currently created a catalog item and through a script I can request it on behalf of end users. My current issue is that if the item hasn't been updated by the user within 14 days I would like to send out a reminder email with specifik instructions and then again a new email after 28 days. Currently I have been trying to create a email notification but it doesn't seem to work.
I have tried a couple of different conditions and the one I would assume is the one I'm looking for is:
"updated > relative > before > 7 days ago" but this has no luck either.
Can achieve my goal through an email notification or should i try something else like event trigger?
Thank you in advance

Hi there,
What you are trying now is just a notification with conditions? That will never work for your use case.
You could instead create a scheduled Flow for this (zero code), which runs daily and queries for the records you are after. And if any found, creates a Notification.

Hi HP7,
What I ended up doing is that i created a n action within flowdesigner that takes in different values as seen below:
Hereafter, I created a flow that runs, in this case once, but you could also have it run every 14 days. It then looks up for records matching my specific criteria's but you can easily apply your own here. For each of the looked up records I then apply my created action. This action triggers an event and the event itself is linked to an email notification that sends out the email.
Works very well for me and my business case.
