Email actor
Describes how to use an email actor to trigger customized emails when someone submits a form.
Note
Optimizely Forms is only supported by MVC-based websites and HTML5-compliant browsers.
Optimizely Forms can trigger customized emails when someone submits a form.
The editor can use placeholders to automatically fill in data from the form into the email, as shown in the following example images:
- #EMAIL# – Displays the email address submitted from the form data.
- #NAME# – Displays the text string submitted in the form's name field.
- #SUMMARY# – Displays submitted form field data.
