How to Configure the Survey Submitted Trigger in GoHighLevel
Updated March 11, 2025
Without automated follow-ups, survey responses often go unacknowledged — leaving contacts without confirmation and valuable data unactioned. By configuring the Survey Submitted workflow trigger in GoHighLevel, you'll automatically send thank-you emails, apply tags, and update contact fields based on specific survey responses.
Overview
The Survey Submitted trigger activates a workflow whenever a contact completes a survey. This feature is ideal for automating follow-up actions, such as sending a thank-you email, updating contact details, or applying tags based on the survey responses.
