We are new to Airtable (switching from Smartsheets) and are building our bases/tables to help us manage a busy Special Events production office at a university. We need help with a Zapier integration to ping/send reminder notifications to collaborators before task deadlines. We all use Outlook as our default email service.

Hello John,
My name is Eric and I’d be happy to go over my ideas with you via a phone consultation if you’d like. I actually set up a notification feature just like this on several other client projects.
Would you be available to schedule a call so we can discuss your project in detail so I can hear your ideas and provide a price and turn around time to get this going.
If you’d like to discuss your project, please schedule a free consultation with me via this link:
You can also connect with me on linkedin - http://linkedin.com/in/eckline
Best,
Eric Kline

Hi John
I would be happy to help as well - but you may find it easier to do this with Integromat as it is capable of running a process periodically which can search a tasks table based on due date, for example, and then sending reminders. The Airtable setup in Integromat would be:
followed by a step to send the email alert. You could set this to run periodically - for example daily at 9am:
The interesting point about Integromat is that any steps after this search will run for each record returned by the search.
If you need more help let me know.
