yes, I think my [trick](https://community.glideapps.com/t/automatic-toggle-trigger/37324) can be part of solution but I wonder how:

1. Send a mail directly from Glide via JS? As far I know, sending an email is a server task and a JavaScript code can’t send email from a web browser
2. Send a webhook vía JavaScript code (using JS plugin again)?. It doesn’t look easy either, a workaround could be [this](https://copyprogramming.com/howto/is-there-any-way-to-post-a-webhook-using-javascript) but I’d not use it

I’d take the @Jeff_Hager’s idea about using the Fetch JSON column to execute a URL (a webhook?) and fire the Zap.

Saludos!
