How notify a collaborator a status has been updated?

[Charlie_Livings]

I have a very simple use case. I have a collaborator field on a record. The record gets updated (status changes to ‘ready’). Now I want the collaborator to be notified that the status has changed to ‘ready’. How can I do this? Note that this collaborator is not in our company Slack so I don’t want to automate a Slack message. I want Airtable to send them a notification (preferably by email).

What’s the easiest way to achieve this?

Make an automation that runs “when a record matches conditions”. Set the condition to where the {status} field = “ready”. Then add a Send email step to the Automation and enter the collaborator’s email address.
