In this article, you will learn how to set up your workflow to notify you when a lead opens an email.

Step 1: Create the workflow 

• Start from scratch by navigating to Automations > Workflows, then clicking on the “+ Create a new Workflow” Button and selecting Start from scratch.

Step 2: Name the Workflow and then add the Email Events Trigger

• Add the trigger Email Events, and add the filter Events - Opened.
• You can also filter by workflow.

• Select the type of notification from the dropdown. In this example, we will be using the email type Internal Notification.

• Fill in the details as needed. Below is an example I created using custom values.
