I'm developing a clinical website with an intake form. When users submit their information, it's automatically stored in Appwrite's database.

I'd like to set up a system where an email is sent to a specific recipient each time the database is updated with a new form submission.

Questions:

  1. does appwrite support database triggers or event listeners for this use case?
  2. if so, could you provide guidance or documentation on configuring such a trigger?

Thank you for the assistance!

TL;DR
- Developer wants to set up email notifications triggered by database updates in Appwrite for a clinical website. 1) Appwrite does support database triggers for this use case. 2) To configure the trigger, refer to Appwrite's documentation on setting up event listeners. Good luck with your project!
