[SOLVED] Auto Action: Addition of a new entry into a DB table, send out email to set email address was created by timstohr

Hi Kyle,

Currently watching the auto action tutorials of Nant. He mentions that Auto action will work on any table...

I would like to set up that an email gets sent to my administrator account every time some row is added in the SQL Table JOFacebookEventsPro .

How do I do this? It would enable me to monitor when my users are creating events.

Thanks

Tim

No, that's not what he meant. It works on any database table using the Query action. Meaning it can run SQL on an external or internal database table. Inserting to your custom database table doesn't fire a CB trigger so CB Auto Actions can't act on it.

Ah yeah

I had thought that I would be able to quickly solve my problems using auto actions

but yeah obviously it does not hit any triggers...

Thanks for clarifying

Tim
