Send change order emails to customers after approval

Automatically monitor incoming reviewer action payloads across Webhooks by Zapier and Google Sheets. Send change order emails to customers when reviewer marks change order ready, reviewer marks change order complete, or review payload arrivesβ€”so you can format summaries, send replies, and update change order rows without manual follow-up.

How this automation speeds customer change order updates

When reviewer actions arrive but customer updates are handled manually, approvals can stall and customers wait. This automation receives reviewer payloads, formats and sends customer emails, and updates the central change order rowβ€”so your team can keep the process moving.

  1. 1.Receives reviewer action payload

    Integrate Webhooks by Zapier and webhook handling tools to receive the reviewer action payload and map the workflow timestamp and flag.
