Workiom has some built-in notifications for basic things such as; when a user is assigned to a record, when a user is tagged in a comment etc. However using the automation system users can create a smart, use-case-specific notification messages.

'Notify User' is one of the automation actions in Workiom that you can use with all automation triggers;

  • a record is created,
  • a record is updated,
  • a record matches a condition (using 'record updated' with conditions), 
  • time triggers

When you select 'Notify User' as the automation action, you are asked to choose the User that will be notified as either 'Static' or 'Dynamic' field type: 

  • Static field type is used when you want to notify the same user, independent from the details of the record that triggered the automation. You can choose a user in you workspace from the list of users
  • Dynamic field type is used when you want to get the user information from one of the user fields of the record that triggered the automation.

Dynamic User Field
