..


You can define when to send a notification based on the type of triggering event. The instance can send a notification in either of these circumstances.


  • When a record is inserted or updated
  • When a specific event runs

Hi Jai,



You can send the Notifications either by creating a Notification through System Notifications in Application Navigator and you can trigger them either when record is inserted/update OR when any event runs.



Another way is via Workflow, you can use Notification Activity in a Workflow to trigger Notifications.

Till Utah Release there are 7 different ways I can think of:


1] Manually Send Email from a Record

2] Notification -> Event is fired
3] Notification -> Record inserted or updated
4] Workflow Activity -> Notification
5] Flow Action -> Send Email

6] Flow Action -> Send Notification

7] Using GlideEmailOutbound API (Server-Side)
