[Evergreen-general] An action trigger for sending emails after bib records are created?

Wed Jul 6 11:24:42 EDT 2022

Hi Linda,

Since the purpose of a custom filter is to further limit events that are
being created, adding one would not help if no events are currently
succeeding.

Perhaps you are running into this launchpad bug:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1955079

Since your triggers are using the same hook and reactor as the one that
emails records from the catalog, I would suspect yours would also be
affected by this bug.

Hope this is helpful,
Michele
