Can you make that user have access to the app so that it becomes a valid choice? Or you do not want to pay a license for that email address. I'm pretty sure that the FROM has to be from a user so that Quick Base knows that you are not generating spam emails from a fake email address.
- PaulTrimor8 years agoQrew CadetHow exactly do I give a user access to that app? The user I want is already listed in the users list in the table I want to send a notification form.
- QuickBaseCoachD8 years agoQrew CaptainDid you set the Notification to trigger for only single record changes?
Assuming so, then how about adding a formula user field to the table with a formula
ToUser("john.smith@mycompany.com")
That field will then be a choice for the FROM. - PaulTrimor8 years agoQrew CadetI've added a field User-Formula with the value 'ToUser("john.smith@mycompany.com")' in the same table with the Email notification. However, it still did not show up in the FROM dropdown.
- QuickBaseCoachD8 years agoQrew CaptainCan you try one more thing which is quick to test?
Go to your Users tab and see if that user has a green checkbox to show in user pickers. - PaulTrimor8 years agoQrew CadetI figured out what I was doing wrong, I didn't have the "change on single record" enabled.
- QuickBaseCoachD8 years agoQrew CaptainWhen you kept saying that you did not see the user on the drop down list, I thought you were just missing 1 user - you were missing the whole option to select a FROM. That only can appear if it is a single record change.
Glad is working for you now.
