Email Trigger Feature (Admins Only)

The Email Trigger feature allows you to automatically start campaigns by sending emails to a special campaign email address. This is particularly useful for processing job applications and resumes.

Note: A UI screenshot showing the Email Trigger interface is available and will be added to this documentation.

How Email Triggering Works

  1. Get the Campaign Email Address:

    • Each campaign has a unique email address: [campaign-id]@campaign.plugandplai.ai
    • Copy this address from the Email Trigger tab in your campaign.
  2. Send CV and Information:

    • Send an email to the campaign address
    • Attach the candidate's CV or resume as a PDF
    • Include information you want extracted in the email body
  3. Automatic Processing:

    • The system automatically processes the CV
    • Extracts contact information (email, name, phone)
    • Adds the contact to your campaign
    • Schedules the automated call

Email Body Template

When sending emails to trigger campaigns, include information like:

  • Skills to look for
  • Experience level requirements
  • Current position details
  • Company information
  • Availability preferences
  • Location preferences
  • Salary expectations
  • Languages spoken

Test Email Feature

Before using the email trigger in production:

  1. Go to the Email Trigger tab in your campaign
  2. Click Send Test Email
  3. Enter your email content
  4. Attach sample files if needed
  5. Send the test to verify everything works correctly

Best Practices for Email Triggers

  • Use clear email content: Specify exactly what information to extract
  • Attach CVs as PDFs: The system works best with PDF format
  • Test before production: Always send test emails first
  • Monitor results: Check that contacts are added correctly to your campaigns
