Now, anytime a team member updates their state, a notification email will be sent!

Additional Information

This recipe sends an email notification (or Slack, Teams, Text) when there is a change in the address state for an 'Active' GoCo user.

It listens to 'GoCo-Employee updated (Real-time)' trigger and it performs the following:

For Employment Status: 'ACTIVE'

  • For the updated user in GoCo this recipe compares address state value from the lookup table 'GoCo Users with state information' and sends the email notification to email if there is state change it also updates state value in lookup table .
  •  If the user is not present in lookup table then it adds the user to lookup table.
