Autoresponder events link an SMTP provider, an email template, and a trigger condition to one or more products. Once created and assigned to a campaign, they automatically send emails when a matching transaction occurs (e.g., order confirmation, recurring payment issue).
Step 1: Create a New Autoresponder Event
Go to CRM > Autoresponders > Events.
Click New.

Recurring Cycle Number (Optional): Only available for recurring-related emails. Use this to send a unique email for a specific billing cycle (e.g., Cycle 1, Cycle 2, etc.).
Send after and Unit (Optional): How long to wait before the email goes out, in minutes, hours or days (up to 30 days). Leave it empty to send right away. Only shown for email types that can be delayed. See How to Delay an Email Autoresponder.
