Hi everyone,

Despite my searches i am unable to find how to do the following :
The form is working with a DB listing various hotels and containing their name and email mail address.
In the form the user is supposed to select a name in a dropdown, the available names are loaded from the DB.

So far, no problem. Now what i'd like to do would be to automatically send an email to the concerned hotel when the form is submitted, by taking the email address from the corresponding line in my DB.

Any idea how i could do this ?

A little help would be deeply appreciated !

Hi Turtle,

Which part isn't working? You have the hotel name or ID in the submitted form data I guess?

Hi Bob,

Yes, the ID, the hotel's name & the hotelkeeper's email adress are loaded from the DB through DB multi record loader.
The dynamic dropdown is working well, I just do not understand how I shall fill the dynamic to field in the email parameters so it would send an email to the hotelkeeper.

Hi Bob,

I still do not understand how to look up the email address from the ID of the selected hotel.
I've put a DB record loader in the on submit section but I'm unable to make it match the dropdown selection.

It might be a stupid question, apologies for that, but I'm totally new in this area !

Thanks for your help.

Hi Turtle,

What is the form data that gives you the Hotel ID (you can see that from a Debugger action)?

What settings do you currently have in the DB Read action?

Bob

Hi Bob,

Thanks a lot !

After looking at the Debugger report I understood why it wouldn't work as expected, I put the wrong parameters in the DB record loader the whole time.

Guess I really did not understand your first answer !

Problem solved, thanks again.
