Now that you have created the form through which
the candidates will submit their applications, let's address the requirement
that the app is to automate notifying the candidates that their applications
were submitted successfully.
As the candidates will be
sharing their email address while submitting the Application Form, we can notify them by sending an
email when they submit this form. You can achieve this by using one of the
built-in features of forms in Zoho Creator. To enable sending an email on form submission:
1. In the Design page, hover the mouse over the form's
preview, then click Open Form Builder.
2. Click the Properties icon near the top-right corner of the
form builder, as shown below. The Form Properties pane
will appear on the right.
3. Check the checkbox next
to Send email notification, as shown below. The Customize link will appear:
4. Click Customize. In the Set email notification pop-up
window:
· Set To: Select the Email Address field
· Set Subject as 'Confirming your Application'
· Set Message as shown below
· Click Done
5. Close the Form Properties, then click Done at the top-right corner of the form builder.
