Overview

Emails created in the "Communications" section on Limelight can be scheduled to be sent at a specific date and time. In this article, we cover the steps you need to take to create a scheduled email. 

Prior to scheduling an email, make sure you've setup the correct filters. These can be set on the Settings tab, under the Filter Recipients section.




Here, you can pick fields from all your forms in the project (App or Web forms) to use as filters for your email. We have different filters to help you match your email to the right audience. To learn more about email filters, you can read our Email Filters article. Once you're happy with your filters, make sure to save your changes before continuing to the Schedule tab.
