Option to not send an initial assigned task e-mail

It would be great if you could opt out for sending an initial task mail if you have a lot of people assigned to a task, otherwise a whole department gets overwhelmed by all the task mails. It would be beter if you could assign a task to a certain department mailbox which only receives the mail and every employee from that department can finish the task.

I Also mis a "cc" mail field on the "assigned task action".

    Hi Kate,

    Thank you for your response, really appreciated! I'm very knew to the Automation platform (but an experienced Nintex WF/Forms urser for SP O365). I'm going to test this in the near future. If this works it will save us a lot of issues.

    Met vriendelijke groet,

    Hi @Guest,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    There is a possible solution in disabling the Assignee Authentication:

    • Task is assigned to the Department email address

      • Anyone with the task link can respond to the task

      • Ensure department employees to claim the task (If they are made Business owners of the workflow, they can delegate to themselves)

    This will ensure only the Department email account (and delegated users) will receive the task email.

    Let me know what you think!

    Regards,
    Kate Huynh
