I am trying to send an email to a contact group in gmail when posts are made in Discord (in a specific channel). I see that I can use the group/labels in the “to” field, but I don’t want all the email addresses visible to the recipients so I want to send via BCC. It doesn’t look like I can use groups/labels in the bcc field. Has anyone done this successfully?

Hi
For us to have more context about what you are referring to, post screenshots with how your Zap steps are outlined and configured along with the issue you are having with configuring the Zap step fields.
This is the step I am on. I want to use the send message to Google Contacts…. but I can only do in Send… If I try to do in the BCC, it doesn’t link/work.

TIP: Click field labels too see tooltips with more info.
To BCC, you can try including the email address for the Google Contacts Group/Label.
I did check the tips and it didn’t give me what I was looking for and labels in google don’t have their own address you can send to. Which is why I was looking to see if anyone had done this before and how they did it.

Hey there
Just came across this and wanted to check how it’s going. Were you able to get it sorted?
If not, it looks like the Send Message to Google Contacts Group/Label field is set to True in your screenshot, so I’d have thought that you’d be able to use a label in the Bcc field. If you don’t want to test with that group until you’ve confirmed that it will definitely send as needed, you could set up another group label but for contacts that only have email addresses that you own. Then test with that new label in the Bcc field to check it works.
Keep us posted on your progress! 🙂
