Automatic email send when field is updated or added to table

JodyWilson

Please create an email engine of some sort that would allow the functionality of an email to be sent off to and address if a field is changed or new point, line or polygon drawn.

As an administrator, it would be nice to know when field workers have added specific new features, or updated features.  Is this possible.....maybe there is already a way to do this?

Thanks,

Jody,

At 10.1 you can enable editor tracking. This gives you the ability to track when a feature was created and by who and when a feature was last edited and by who. Using this functionality you could run a query to return all records that had been created or updated Today. With python you could automate this to run the query, create a report and have it e-mailed to you daily. Below is a blog post that talks about configuring a script to send you an e-mail after a geoprocessing tool is run. Although not exactly the same the idea is similar.
