- In the Form Builder, go to the Settings tab.
- Click Emails on the left panel.
- In the Email section, hover your mouse over the Autoresponder Email and click the Pencil icon to edit it.
If you don’t have an Autoresponder Email in your form, check out this Setting up an Autoresponder Email guide to create one.
- Go to the Advanced tab of the Autoresponder Email.
- Scroll down to Send Email Later and toggle it to the On position.

- Delay for — The email is sent after the selected time period, either a set number of days or hours following the initial submission.
- Exactly at — The email is sent on the selected date and time after the initial submission.
