Hi Evan,
I have an automation scheduled nightly to check a box when records meet certain criteria. The automation works. I wanted this to trigger a notification when the record is modified but I'm not getting a notification. Do you know if a scheduled automation can trigger a notification?

Thanks!

Hi Heather,

Does that notification have a multi record version set up? What I have usually seen happening if it is not firing but hitting all of the triggers for the notification when the Automation runs is that it is updating the records all at once and if a multi-record notification isn't set up to send out then no notification will go out. I would suggest testing that by making sure a multi record version of the notification has been set up and see if it goes out the next time the notification should run.
