Hi there,

I am currently trying to implement a feature for the users to kind of send a direct message to other users by email. I know there is an “email” button but in this case the user can see the other user’s email.

I’d prefer a “contact” button with a form that would be sent by email. In other words, how to send the input of a form by email?

If anyone has been through this any help is appreciated

Might be able to do a Zapier zap. I’ve wanted the same thing to…email another user without seeing their email.

Hi,  
I still can’t implement that feature, I followed Jack’s new tutorial on Glide and Zapier but it won’t work.  
Here is how I did :  
The values:

1. Is the users’ email in my column (the “To:”);
2. Would be the name of the user who is signed in (and the app email’s, the same for all messages ), or the user’s who is signed in his email (the “From:”) but I don’t know how to do this step ;
3. The subject is ok with a first row message;
4. The body seems ok too with a first row message.

If anyone has tried that already…  
Thank you

> Hi there, I have been struggling with it for a week and it would be a nice feature to release my app. Experiencing Glide with Zapier, I’m trying to allow users to send other users a generic message like : “I’m X, I want to offer help with this project, contact me at X”. I want the recipient to remain hidden as long as he does not reply. The zap is properly configured, a standard email with the name of the app would be the sender, the subject and the body are good. However, I don’t know how…
