How do you notify submitters of a form that their submission has been published or completed?

We have a Form on monday.com that employees can use to make requests. We want to have a way to notify the submitters or requesters that their submission or request has been completed.

Is there a way to notify submitters via email?
is there a way to notify submitters in-app?

Ideally, we would mark the task as “Done” or “Complete” under our status column, and by doing that, an automation would trigger notifying the submitter.

You’ll want to have one of the questions on the form be their email address OR a people column (if all submitters are monday users). This is example of it with a people column, but you should substitute with email column if they’re manually putting their email

Thanks @dmccarthy22710 ! When I go to automations, I have the option to notify Team People, People (Column), Subscribers, Team, or Guest. If I go to People (Column), then it gives me the option of Assigned To or Owner. However, these two options are employees who are completing the task, not the one who submitted the task.

We do have a question in our form that asked for the individual’s email. I don’t see a way to select this column and its content as the way to “notify someone”.

Is there somewhere else I should look?
Do I need to somehow manipulate the question of “What is your email?” into a “People Column”?



Add a People Column ( can name something like submitter ), then make sure that question is on the form for them to choose themselves when they submit.

The automation would then be to notify a ‘People column’, and you’d choose the submitter people column. Hope that helps!
