Why Your Form Email Automation Might Be Failing

You built a custom form, hit “publish,” and… crickets. No notification. No follow-up. Frustrating? Absolutely. Many businesses face broken form email automation after platform updates or behind-the-scenes API changes. A few common culprits:

Outdated triggers
Your form ID changed. Your automation still points to the old one.
Permission glitches
Dataset settings restrict submissions from firing an email.
Complex scripting
Suddenly you need custom code to invoke a trigger—no more one-click Automations.
Hidden templates
You can’t pass the right data to your email layout without a proper template ID.

When your email trigger flops, every lost submission can mean a lost lead. Worse? Your team wastes hours troubleshooting.
