Once you have finished your form and clicked the Save button, you have a few different options for how to continue. One of these options is to set up Email Notifications.

You can choose to have Gravity Forms send email when a visitor to your site submits your form. You can also choose to send all or some of the form data, along with a personalized message.

Edit Form Page Notification Option
- Fill out the appropriate fields with the addresses you want email notifications sent to. Multiple email addresses can be added, separated by a comma. The “From email” must be a BU email address ending in @bu.edu. Keep in mind many of these options can be set to include data that was submitted with the form, such as the visitor’s email address, and any information he submitted. You can also specify any personal message you would like sent.
- When you are finished, click the Save Settings button at the bottom of the page.
Please note: If you do not have an email address field on your form, you will not be able to send any email notifications to the user that submits the form.
