I´d like to notify the owner of the row/record by email that a switch was modified.  
Do I have to use Zapier or IFTTT?

My project someone requests help and unknown person makes a donation and switch the request tell the requester that the donation was made.

I´d like to send a msg to the requester.

Hey @Alexandre_Caruso

I’m not sure what ITFFF is but Zapier works well with this. You have to set it up to send an email or even text message when a specific action is done ☑ on the GS in this case when the row is updated.

I hope this helps.

IFTTT was popular back in the days (and still do in the automations community). My sole use is to create Applet (Apple automations).

There is another way, but it will include some coding to the sheet itself:

1. [https://www.groovypost.com/howto/google-sheets-send-email-based-on-cell-value/](https://www.groovypost.com/howto/google-sheets-send-email-based-on-cell-value/)

_or_

1. [https://developers.google.com/apps-script/articles/sending\_emails](https://developers.google.com/apps-script/articles/sending_emails)

One more way, but not sure if will work in your case is:

**Set up email notifications**

1. In **Google Sheets** , open the **spreadsheet** where you want to set **notifications**.
2. Select Tools. **Notification** rules.
3. Select when and how you want to **receive notifications**.
4. Click Save.

Hope it helps,
