Automatic personalized e-mail invitation when user added to contact list

Question

Hi,

I have a question in a research survey that invites the respondent to enter an email to refer another individual to the study. I have set up a contact list trigger so that if respondents enter an e-mail here, their referral e-mail address gets stored in a contact list, along with some other details. I would like to send an automatic e-mail invitation to the individual referred by the respondent as soon as the respondent completes the survey. In other words, I would like to trigger an e-mail invitation to specific individuals as soon as they are added to a contact list.

I am not certain this is possible, but so far I can only send e-mails to the entire list at once. I do not want to send multiple e-mails to the entire list. I would like each referred individual to be invited into the survey very soon after the respondent who referred them completes the survey. I need to automate this given that it is not feasible to do this manually.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

@ColinScott42,You can use an Action to run a web service task that uses the Qualtrics API to schedule an email distribution (and reminders if you want).

Hi @ColinScott42 I have an idea but i don't know if it fits youyou can add the email as a contact trigger but also create an email trigger with the anonymous link and the invitation. and you can put the piped text for the email containing that answer in the to email field in the trigger
