Notify a digital agent
Notify a digital agent sends an in-app and email notification to a fulfillment agent. Use it to alert the person responsible for delivering a service when an automation reaches a point that requires human action. This action is available on account-scoped triggers.
How it works
- The automation reaches the Notify a digital agent step with an account in scope
- The step identifies the target fulfillment agent — either a specific person or the assigned agent
- Both an in-app notification and an email are sent with the content you configured
- The automation continues to the next step
Set up the action
- Open the automation builder and add a new step
- Under Notifications, select Notify a digital agent
- Configure the fields:
Recipient
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Fulfillment agents | Yes | The fulfillment agent(s) to notify. Select specific team members or leave as Assigned fulfillment agent to target whoever is assigned to the account. |
In account templates and default automations, the recipient is locked to Assigned fulfillment agent and cannot be changed. This ensures the notification always reaches the right person regardless of which account the template is applied to.
Notification content
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| In-app message | Yes | The text displayed in the in-app notification. |
| In-app link | Yes | The URL the notification links to when clicked in-app. Defaults to the Task Manager page for the account. |
| Email subject | Yes | The subject line of the email notification. |
| Email message | Yes | The body of the email notification. Supports rich text formatting. |
| Email button text | Yes | The label on the email's call-to-action button. |
| Email link | Yes | The URL the email button links to. Defaults to the Task Manager page for the account. |
Use Add dynamic content in any text or link field to insert values from a previous step. You can use {{business_id}} and {{partner_id}} in link fields as placeholders that resolve at runtime.
