hello -

I created my first zap - email whenever a new record is available in airtable view. I tested it and it works fine. I get an email but when i turned it on, I am not getting any email at all. I went ahead and did a sample registration and nothing happened

OK, @Parvinder, great!

 

You should be able to do this without the Find in the middle. Just Trigger = New Record in View and Action = Send Email (or create draft).

Could you show screen shots of your Zap and Airtable view?  Also what is the email system you are using?

@Parvinder - 

 

What are you looking to do here? Send an email to a new record in Airtable?

 

Thanks!

That makes sense! Not all zaps are instant. The triggers and actions that are are flagged.
