Actions

Actions define what happens when a survey submission is received. Multiple actions can be enabled at the same time.

Action types

store

Persist the submission in the Survey results store. Stored submissions appear in @@results and are available for exports and detail views.

mail

Generate exports in the configured formats and send them as attachments. Requires E-Mail recipient and Subject. If no formats are selected, the system defaults to PDF.

mail-notification

Send a notification-only email that links to the submission detail view. Uses the notification subject/body templates.

post

POST the submission to the configured endpoint. The payload contains the submission data, the current form JSON, and the survey URL. This action is only executed when an endpoint URL is configured.

Execution flow

1. @@save-poll receives and validates a submission.

2. A submission event is emitted with the payload and metadata.

3. Subscribers execute enabled actions (store, mail, mail-notification, post).

4. The response is returned to the caller.

Notes

• If store is disabled, submissions still return success but are not persisted.

• mail and mail-notification are independent and can be combined.

• post does not block storage or mail; it executes in addition to those actions when enabled.
