Email Notifications

NexusForm can send email notifications when someone submits a form. You can notify yourself (or your team) and optionally send an auto-reply to the customer.

  1. Open a form in the NexusForm dashboard.
  2. Go to the Notifications tab.
  3. Click Add Notification.
  • Recipient(s): Enter one or more email addresses (comma-separated).
  • Subject line: Use template variables like {{form_name}} and {{submission_date}}.
  • Body: The email includes all submitted field values by default. You can customize the template.

Example subject line:

New submission: {{form_name}} — {{submission_date}}

If your form has an Email field, NexusForm can send an automatic reply to the person who submitted the form.

  1. In the Notifications tab, click Add Auto-Reply.
  2. From name: The name the customer sees (e.g. “NexusForm Support”).
  3. Subject: e.g. “Thanks for reaching out!”
  4. Body: Write a confirmation message. You can use {{field_name}} variables to personalize it.

You can use these variables in subject lines and email bodies:

VariableDescription
{{form_name}}The name of the form
{{submission_date}}Date and time of the submission
{{submission_id}}Unique ID of the submission
{{field_name}}Value of a specific field (use the field’s label in snake_case)
{{all_fields}}Formatted list of all submitted fields and values
  • Edit: Click on an existing notification to change recipients, subject, or body.
  • Disable: Toggle a notification off without deleting it.
  • Delete: Remove a notification permanently.

Each form can have multiple notifications — for example, one to the store owner and a different one to a support team inbox.

NexusForm sends emails through a managed delivery service. Emails are sent from notifications@nexusform.app by default.

Email notification limits depend on your plan. See Plans & Limits for details.
