In Salesforce, sending emails to users and customers is a very common requirement. Earlier, admins used Workflow Rules or Process Builder to send emails, but now Salesforce Flow is the most powerful and flexible tool for automation.
Using Flow, you can automatically send emails based on record changes, user actions, or scheduled events.
This helps reduce manual work and improves communication with customers and internal teams. You can send emails using different methods, such as the Send Email action and Email Alerts.
As a Salesforce admin, sending emails to users and customers is part of my daily activities. Earlier, I used to schedule the routine email and had to send the other one manually.
After working with flows, I learned that emails can be automated in Salesforce Lightning.
