Email Actions for Company & Custom Object Workflows

Modified on: Mon, 27 Jul, 2026 at 5:10 AM

You can now send emails directly from Company and Custom Object workflows using the Send Email action.

Previously, email actions were only available in Contact workflows. With this enhancement, you can automate email communication based on Company or Custom Object events without creating additional Contact workflows.


TABLE OF CONTENTS


Popular Use Cases

Use the Send Email action to automate communications such as:

  • Customer onboarding when a new Company or Custom Object record is created.
  • Renewal reminders for contracts, subscriptions, or memberships.
  • Project or deal updates sent to associated stakeholders.
  • Order or service notifications based on Custom Object status changes.
  • Internal approvals to associated support representative.
  • Follow-up emails when a Company or Custom Object reaches a specific stage.
