Send notifications to different users/groups based on list entries


Badge +1

Hello,

I am still a bit new to Nintex and working on the SharePoint 2013 platform.  I currently have built a request form for my organization which has a number of different yes/no (checkbox) fields.  Is it possible, that when a user submits the form, for a notification to be sent out to a pre-determinded list of people depending on what choices were chosen within the form? 

For example, in the image below... if a user were to select Cancer, i'd want a notification sent to a specific set of users.  But if Kidney is chosen, id like the notification to go to a different set of users upon submission.  Is there a way to do this?

sure it's possible.

define a variable that will collect all the mail addresses you want to send notification to.

ad to the workflow set of conditional actions that will check whether each of specific options is checked or not. if checked, add/append respective mail address to the variable.

finally, configure send notification action to send mail to the 'variable'.

just make sure variable contain at least one addressee, otherwise workflow will fail.
