Sometimes getting immediate feedback from events can be crucial! Moosend's different types of Actions open up your automation workflow designs to numerous applications, among which you'll find the ability to ping yourself or a small group of people of your choice.
Using the "Then ping me" action you, or whoever you add on that behind-the-scenes list, will receive a notification announcing that your automation has been triggered. This action can be used inside a workflow to keep you and your colleagues up to speed of your automation's activity.
You must first set up an appropriate trigger that will set things in motion and then you can start setting up your action. To add it to your workflow follow the steps below:
A. Finding the Actions
1. Click on the + button, located at every intersection on your workflow.
A pop-up window appears.
2. Choose the Actions tab, on the pop-up that appears.
3. Click on the Then ping me option.
A pop up window of your action's settings will appear.
B. Setting up the Action
1. Fill-in the email address(es) of whoever you want to ping, on the Recipients area.
The email address of the Moosend account owner is there by default but you can choose to remove it, or add more email addresses beside it.
2. Click on the Save button when you're done.
Your action will be ready and waiting inside your workflow.
Don't forget to take a look on how you can edit your automation workflow, so that you can optimize your automation design, and make it work exactly how you want.
