We create ideas and register subscriptions for the idea against a specified portal via the AHA API. We do this as it allows us to inline the process of idea creation rather than have the user have to go out to a portal and insert an idea.
In this workflow Aha makes no provision for the portal to send out a thankyou email - we like to do this as it enables us to provide a reference for where the user can access the idea they created and outline next steps.... we'd like API creation with the disable_mailers=False
to result in this portal notification being sent out
You can now specify the intended portal when submitting an idea via API. See how. And you can also send the thank you email if you no longer specify disable_mailers=true
in the create idea API request.
