With Form submission automations, you can keep your audience in the loop throughout your form-based workflows by sending them automations through emails, webhooks, or integrations whenever someone submits a form.
The automation can be triggered by a full response, a partial submission, or when certain conditions are met. You can then choose to deliver the automation in an email, a webhook, or send it through integrations.
The Contacts & Automations add-on is available on the Plus, Business, Growth Flow, Talent, Growth Custom, and Enterprise plans.
