Object with atribute type value = date as a trigger

[Jan Odvárka]

Hi,

I would like to kindly ask, whether it is possible to use date in atribute as a trigger for notification.

We have few object types like "warranty" where it would be great to get notification after the filled in date is breached.

thanks

Kind regards,

Jan

Hi Jan, 

You should trigger the automation based on a Scheduled event, and then configure the IQL as you want it to, according to the documentation linked for IQL, as an example you could use the now() function together with a suitable operator.

Hi Jan,

This is something that you can do using Automation together with our query language called IQL. You can read about the two concepts at

Hi Alexander,

I already checked the mentioned links before I post my question, but thanks anyway :)

Problem is that automation manager is pretty easy to use, but I am not able to find out how to use the date as a trigger.

I have object type named asset, this asset has an atribute named "Garance Valid to" with date type like 1/jul/18. I need to somehow define that the value is treshold for triggering notification - email
