How to create an automatic followup email requesting a response?
After sending in email in bulk to my contacts, can an automation be set up to request a response if the email doesn't get a reply within a set number of days?

Automation not working with second instant condition
I'm running into some troubles when adding a second instant condition. I would like an email trigger to occur when a deal is both tagged with a specific tag, and then also moved into a new deal stage. The tagging could happen at any stage in the onboarding, and this would be too early to send the email. And the tag…
Automation for update reminder
Hi all! I have an automation for deals update reminder. This automation sends a reminder e-mail to users for their deals that have not been updated for 15 days.

Some emails sent through automations links to deal, but others do not
My automations are sending emails to contact of a deal in pipeline. Mail is sent and it's linked to contact. Problem is that in history of deal sometimes I see email and sometimes I do not.

How to create a custom field that populates based on the last user to touch a deal?
I would like to create a custom field (which I have created the field itself), but I need it to populate based on the last user in our org who touched an open deal. The team today does not updated "lead owner" each time the deal is manipulated, so that field cannot be used. We'd like a record of who last touched each deal…

Administer Automations for all
We're small and scrappy, but one of the most important features for a software tool is the ability for one person to be able to administer items for everyone. For processes and any automations of those processes, it shouldn't be required that a sales person, for example, have the experience and understanding of a process…
Keeping follow up email in the same thread (workflow automation with delay)
Hi, I have set up an email sequence with workflow automation, in which an email is sent whenever a deal is created at a certain stage. If the deal is still at this specific stage, I have set a delay function of 2 days. After 2 days a follow-up email will be sent. This process works perfectly fine. However, the 2nd email is…

Automation History Field for Deals/Contact
Currently automation history doesn't show for which deal/contact that automation is running making it so hard to find out which one to stop based on already taken action from automation. Like I am sending sequence emails to leads and wants to stop it once they respond or deal is won. It would be great if this feature…
Automations with Project - Activity Dates
would be great if you were able to build an automation off a project Date. it looks like you can do it for activity, deal, org or person. why are projects the bad step child of pipedrive? feels like it should still be free as none of the core functionality has been extended to proejcts.

Is it possible for an Automation where updating one Deal, triggers an action to update another Deal?
Hi everyone, We are currently using an automation where we create a duplicate (Onboarding) Deal for an Onboarding Pipeline whenever a Deal is closed "Won." In our business, once we "win" a Deal, it takes 3 months or so to onboard the client and involves several key steps. At various stages of the Onboarding…

Automations Visual Change: visualize active vs inactive automations better
I would love to see some opacity of inactive automations to better visualize active automations vs inactive/unused/in-dev automations. Since there is no grouping or folder structure to help organize automations, visualizing the cards is the next best method. I have added a picture below as a reference. Very small change,…
Automations Need better management, troubleshooting and Standard Development Features
The automations are a "decent start" but they leave a lot to be desired … We recently had a problem because Pipedrive changed how the Slack integration works.Instead of being notified about this, we only found it because I was doing some updates and saw that one of our users' automations were failing. When I reached out to…

Feature Request: Automations with Import Function
Are you considering allowing automations to work with the import function? For example, uploading a list of deal IDs to trigger specific automations. Currently, bulk edit triggers automation, but bulk import would be more efficient for high-volume tasks like assigning products to multiple deals. e.g. I have 3 products that…
Get Notified When One of Your Email Automations Fails
Unless I am mistaken, there doesn't seem to be a way to set up an alert or notification for when an email automation fails. We rely on this email automation sequence to onboard our new clients and it would be helpful if we were notified if any of these emails fails to send!
Extracting information gathered in Smart Docs and adding to contact record
Hopefully, someone has a solution for this: When we send a contract for signature, we also include a text field where customers add their VAT/Tax number. Is there a way to extract this when the document is completed and add it to a custom field against the contact record?

Feature Suggestion - due dates relative to expected close date
It would be a game changer for our business to have the capability to make due dates relative to the expected close date. We are caterers and we use the expected close date as the event date. We are using Pipedrive from the beginning of the sales process into the prep-for-event process all the way until the event is…
