Create a Campaign Triggered off a time

Anonymous

I'm looking to create a campaign that says "if  x form is submitted after 6 PM, send an email to the customer to notify them that they will be contacted by a sales rep during normal business hours"  I have the flow step in mind to update the field, but I'm having a hard time creating the trigger that works. This is for the time only, not for the date. Any ideas?

Hi Amanda,
depends 😉 Which kind of forms do you need this feature for? If it's a contact form normally people don't submit 2 Forms in less than 5-10 minutes (that's what I expect it to take time) and 1 day later it's okay when the second form overwrites the first value in the database field. And if it's within 5-10minutes you can also use the other timestamp for the first form action without bigger impact.
But yes, that could be a problem.

@Steffen, thanks! I have a follow up quesition; sine  that token has to write to a text field, how do you create the logic without having tons of 'timestamp contains' about ten times in the smart list?

Hi Amanda,
If a campaign would change a field to {{system.time}} you would have a field which contains the exact time of a form submit.
After that you could trigger on this field using "starts with" or "contains" filter.

Hope that helped.

Best regards

Hey there Amanda,

Can you please tell me between what time and what time people fall under that condition? So.. from 6pm until...?
