To set up an Email Trigger to automatically send a confirmation message to someone after they have registered for an event, please follow the steps below.

1. Create a standard registration form and include a Text Entry field for registrants to include his or her email address, similar to the example below:
   
   
   
   
    
2. In the Qualtrics Menu Bar, choose Tools --> Triggers --> Email Triggers… 
   
   
   
   
    
3. In the Trigger panel - next to Message: - choose the Piped Text icon {A} 
   
   
   
   
    
4. Choose Survey Question --> Q3 What is your email address? --> What is your email address? 
   Keep in mind the question will appear with the wording from your survey. 
   
   
   
   
    
5. A string of characters will be placed in the Message body which should look something like this: ${q://QID3/QuestionText}. Cut and paste this string of characters into the To Email Address: field as shown. Be sure to include an appropriate From Name, Reply-To Email, Subject and Message body. Selecting the checkboxes for Include Response Report and Show Full Question Text will automatically email the full survey response to the registrant.
