Hi,

I have successfully set up automated emails via Gmail on Airtable.  Everything runs perfectly except that I can't work out how to change my sender name.

The screenshot below shows the problem, it needs to be capitalised and include my surname.

Just to reiterate, this is when sending via Gmail not from Airtable's own service.

Many thanks in advance!

When setting up your automation in Airtable, look underneath the "From" line and there is a button that says "Show More Options". You can set the "From" name there.
