On an event management app, l want to create a feature where the organizers can send message to some specific users that register for his event…

How can l do this efficiently?

  1. Add a workflow or action to any compatible component (collection, button, etc.)

  2. In the workflow when adding an action, you’ll find actions to send messages in the group of actions called “Communication”.

  3. I think you can send to multiple users with a comma-separated list of emails (not an array). Verify this by doing a quick manual test.

  4. Set things up how you really need them in the data editor: a fixed list of recipients or recipients chosen with a choice component (which by default will give you a china-separated list) or a lookup of all users or a query of users with a specific role.

If I recall right a lookup of emails (so an array) does work in most modules (Send Email, Gmail, Outlook).

Your idea would have worked perfectly if l’m trying to communicate via email…

I’m trying to get message across to users via Glide app(precisely chat component ) or hint component ( but l’m skeptical using this).

If you want to make announcements inside the app, like on the home screen for instance, I think it’s a good idea.
