I would like to be able to submit the form to an email address based on the value of a field. For example, Do you have a contract? Yes goes to support email, no goes to Sales rep.

I thought I might be able to do this with Field rules but I can't. Does anyone have any ideas about how to accomplish this?

Also, is it possible to send to multiple emails? I've tried comma and colon to separate addresses but no luck.

Thanks!

1. This is easily accomplished by selecting"Use Form Value" in Send To Action Drop Down List in Settings. Make sure if you are using list type field that each email address is unique.

2. If you click on the standard Help Icon above the fiels the text displayed is below

Email for the TO: address. Separate Multiple Addresses with semi-colons ";"

If the above does not work you may not be using the latest version 2.0.8

I'm not sure I see how to send to different emails based on the answer to a question on the form.

Your answer:
1. This is easily accomplished by selecting"Use Form Value" in Send To Action Drop Down List in Settings. Make sure if you are using list type field that each email address is unique.

Are you suggesting to create a field rule that uses a drop down list field? I'm not getting it. and yes I am using the latest version.

thanks.

Export your form. send to c5.cust.service at this domain with your emails and a description of what you need and I will modify and send back.

I appreciate your help on this, I wasn't considering adding the email address as a value in the radio button, it works like a charm.

On another note, trying to add field rule that calls a file upload field. I create the file upload field, name it but it is not showing in the field rules. Any secret or is it just not possible?
thank you!

The File Upload fields cannot participate in field rules by design. Can you explain your use case, I wll consider if this should be changed.

BTW. You can check the Encrypt Field Value so email bots can't scan the page and grab the email addresses

I'd like to have file upload dialog in the field rules, if a user says they have an error, file upload appears and gives them a chance to send in a screenshot. It would be sweet if that worked.

I found this posting but I don't know if I understood what to do. I have a form and one of the fields is a check box. It appears as:
Regions(s) of interest:
ME
MA
CT

Where ME, MA, CT are check boxes so they can check all of the regions that they are interested in. Based on what they check I would like to send email to the appropriate individuals. In reading the above do I put the email addresses in the value field of each of the check boxes that I set-up under "edit form"? can I have more than one email address? If so are they separated by ;

Then under "settings" "form settings" under "Send To Action" I selected "Use Form Value" & under "To Email" I select the filed "Region" - which will pick-up the email addresses I put in value field. Is this correct?

Will this work if they check more than one region?

If not then I need guidance

Judy,

Sorry it has taken a while to get back to you. Yes this will work. Form Master will create a semi-colon list of emaill addresses.

>> In reading the above do I put the email addresses in the value field of each of the check boxes that I set-up under "edit form"?
Yes exactly

>> can I have more than one email address? If so are they separated by ;
Yes and Yes

>> Then under "settings" "form settings" under "Send To Action" I selected "Use Form Value" & under "To Email" I select the filed "Region" - which will pick-up the email addresses I put in value field. Is this correct?
Yes
