Email Automation: Email Copy & Email Logic

Array’s Email Automation features let you streamline communication by automatically sending emails when a form is submitted.

Updated over 3 months ago

Whether you're sending confirmation emails, routing data to your internal team, or triggering follow-ups — Email Copy and Email Logic help you do it efficiently and intelligently.

What Is Email Copy?

Email Copy is the content of the email that gets sent automatically after a form submission. You can fully customize this email to suit your needs — including:

  • Acknowledgement or thank-you messages

  • Submission summaries

  • Internal notifications

  • Follow-up instructions

  • Download links or next steps

You can include dynamic fields from the form (e.g., names, email addresses, scores, responses) so that each email is personalized based on the user's input.

What Is Email Logic?

Email Logic allows you to control who receives an email and under what conditions — making it a powerful tool for building smart, responsive workflows.

You can configure logic to:

  • Send different emails based on form answers

  • Route submissions to the correct department

  • Trigger emails only if specific conditions are met

  • CC or BCC other recipients dynamically

Example:

If the user selects “Support” in a dropdown, the email gets sent to the support@yourcompany.com inbox.
If they select “Sales,” it goes to sales@yourcompany.com instead.

How to Set Up Email Copy & Logic

1. Open the Form Builder

Go to the form you want to automate emails for.

2. Navigate to the “Emails” Tab

In the top navigation, find and click on the Emails tab.

3. Click “Add Email”

This opens the email settings for your form.

Configuring Your Email Copy

Once you click Add Email, you’ll see options to customize:

  • Email Subject – Make this short and informative

  • Email Body – Use plain text or HTML, and include dynamic form values using merge fields (like {{First Name}})

  • Recipient Email – Choose whether to send the email to:

    • A specific address

    • A field in the form (e.g., the user’s email)

    • A team member or admin

  • Attachments (optional) – Attach submission PDFs or documents

Pro Tip: Use form values like {{Email}}, {{Score}}, or {{Total Price}} to personalize the message.

Adding Email Logic

Once your email is written, scroll down to enable Logic Rules.

Click “+ Add Rule” to define when and to whom this email should be sent.

Logic Examples:

  • If Country is USA, send to usa-team@yourcompany.com

  • If Order Total is greater than $500, send a follow-up offer

  • If Feedback Score is below 3, send an apology email

You can stack multiple conditions or combine them using AND/OR logic.

Previewing & Testing Your Email

Before going live:

  • Use the Preview Email option to check how it looks

  • Submit a test form entry to see how the email is triggered and ensure formatting is correct

  • Review logic paths with different input scenarios

Use Case Examples

Scenario

Setup

Send confirmation email to customer

Use email copy with recipient set to {{Email}}

Route submissions to different teams

Use logic to check form values and send to team addresses

Alert manager if form score is low

Add a condition based on score field, send to manager

Send download link after form is submitted

Include external link in email body

Follow up only if checkbox “Request Callback” is ticked

Use checkbox logic to trigger follow-up email

Things to Remember

  • Each form can have multiple emails with different conditions

  • You can include PDFs or attachments if needed

  • Merge fields must match the field names in your form exactly (e.g., {{Company Name}})

  • Use test submissions to verify that logic is working correctly
