FormFox version 1.2.2

Dear support Team,
I’m new here and glad to have a community to ask question.

For our Achery Club, I want to use next Nextcloud Hosted Version from Wolkesicher.
Since we do have Tournaments over the year, I want to use Form or FoxForm instead of Microsoft (is in use) to create a registration form for tournament participants.
After registration, the participant should get automatically an email with his data + other information for this tournament.

I tried to create a form with Form as well as FoxForm.
Both works fine, but I can’t find a solution to send an email to the participant after his registration.
I already reviewed older request and found this similar one: Notification via Email when a form has been submitted - using Flow?!

Since this request was from 2024, maybe something has been updated and a different way work.

I would be happy if someone has a workaround for me.

best regards
Peter

Hello,

Welcome to the Nextcloud Community!

With Nextcloud Forms, this is currently not possible, this is the issue: Send content of response as mail notification to form owner · Issue #1233 · nextcloud/forms · GitHub

You can react with :+1: there if you also want this implemented (don’t comment “I also need this”). Someone is working on implementing this feat(forms): add submission notification emails with external recipients and PDF attachments by QuiteBitter · Pull Request #3251 · nextcloud/forms · GitHub - so we might be lucky and get this feature soon.

I don’t know if it is possible with Foxform, maybe someone else knows.

Thank you @alexanderdd ,

This information makes it more transparent where we are.
But I’m wondering that the new pull request isn’t assigned to someone, or is this standard with github?
However, the ticket is created and it seams that someone will or is working on this issue.
I do not need this function in Foxform.
I tried out this app, since email notification is not possible with forms.
So I can stay with forms.

Best regards
Peter

In case someone is checking, the other form app we were talking about is FormVox - Apps - App Store - Nextcloud

@Mallefix I don’t have an answer for your question.
