When we create forms, the emails get sent to our sales team but this information at the end of the email keeps showing up. How can we remove this section from every email?

That is in the default notification email and cannot be edited as far as I know. If you wanted, you can create a custom email to use for internal notifications and send that instead via a workflow.

If I were to create a separate automated email for internal notifications, how would I disable the default HubSpot email from submitting forms?

Hi @PYoganathan,

You can disable form submission notifications right within the form (_Menu_ \> _Marketing_ \> _Lead capture_ \> _Forms_). Click into the _Options_ tab of the form and remove your name(s) from the “Send submission notifications to” dropdown.

You can also disable all form submission notifications in the [notification settings](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/forms/set-up-your-form-submission-notifications#subscribe-to-form-submission-notifications).

Hope this helps!

Hi @PYoganathan,

The default HubSpot form submission notifications can’t be edited. You would need a Professional or Enterprise subscription to [create your own automated email](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/email/create-automated-emails-to-use-in-workflows) that can then be sent using a workflow. (Let me know if you need assistance with creating such an email, happy to help and lay out the steps.)

If you’re on a free or a Starter license, there currently isn’t a workaround.

Best regards!

Thank you for the clarification @karstenkoehler  
Would you mind explaining the steps on creating the automated email that pulls the contact form data?

Hi @PYoganathan,

Sure, this article outlines the [general steps of creating an automated email](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/email/create-automated-emails-to-use-in-workflows#drag-and-drop-editor). The design of the email is entirely up to you.

Alternatively, you could choose to send an “Internal email notification” right from within a contact-based workflow:

 ![karstenkoehler_0-1636123409810.png](https://d2qpr2jzcazej7.cloudfront.net/original/3X/2/0/209c9caaa5dca5bb462bd294acf20b6df9cc95ae.png)

The following steps apply to both an automated email and an internal email notification.

In the text of the email, you can work with [so-called personalization tokens](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/website-pages/personalize-your-content). These tokens pull in information from any contact property – including the property fields used in your form. You can [add these tokens easily in each email](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/website-pages/personalize-your-content#add-personalization-to-your-content).

Depending on which form fields you’re interested in, you’d add exactly the tokens for them, e.g. _First name_, _Last name_, _Email_ etc.

If you want to include a link to the contact record in question, you can use this link:

[https://app.hubspot.com/contacts/PORTAL\_ID/contact/CONTACT\_ID/](https://app.hubspot.com/contacts/PORTAL%5C_ID/contact/CONTACT%5C_ID/)

Replace PORTAL\_ID with your own portal ID (the number that you see when you click on your profile image in the upper right of the screen) and replace CONTACT\_ID with a personalization token for _Contact ID_.

 ![karstenkoehler_1-1636123481087.png](https://d2qpr2jzcazej7.cloudfront.net/original/3X/3/e/3edf882da95352e9eb240d28bb209ded2d2b92e6.png)

HubSpot will then automatically “assemble” the link for each contact.

Let me know if you have any follow-up questions!

Adding to this thread, with hopes that Karsten has an idea… I was looking for an idea in the forum to support editing the default email, or an idea to solves the limitation of cross-object tokens in an email template (which would be triggered by a workflow).  
Here’s what I’m working with as of right now:

Since we cannot edit auto-generated emails (in today’s case, I could solve my internal tension by just being able to update the email subject line so it’s not the default “contact re/conversion” that seems to tag to all form submissions ), I have to go through the following steps to generate an internal email that contains both form/ticket and contact properties:

- create duplicate properties between contact or ticket

- create a workflow that will take said properties and populate them into the other data set

- then create a workflow to trigger an internal email notification, using the original set of fields + the now duplicated fields

Open to any ideas to make this more streamlined!

thanks, Cristina 🙂
