Send an Email When a Student Passes a LifterLMS Quiz

A passing result is a natural point to congratulate a student, unlock the next stage, or notify an instructor. Zapify does this with the A user completes a quiz trigger and its Result = Passed setting, followed by the Send an email action.

What this automation does

The automation is one trigger plus one action:

• Trigger: A user completes a quiz (LIFTERLMS_QUIZ_COMPLETED) with Result = Passed
• Action: Send an email (WP_SEND_EMAIL)

The quiz trigger covers attempted, passed, and failed outcomes through its Result field. For this automation, choose Passed so failed attempts do not run it.

Before you start

• LifterLMS must be installed and active.
• Zapify PRO must be active, since LifterLMS is a PRO integration.
• The quiz you want to monitor must already exist in LifterLMS.

How to build the automation

Step 1: Create a new automation

1. In the WordPress admin, go to Zapify → Automations.
2. Click Add New to open the builder.
3. Give the automation a clear name, such as Congratulate students when they pass a quiz.

Step 2: Add the "A user completes a quiz" trigger

1. Click Add Trigger.

2. Choose LifterLMS as the app.

3. Select the trigger A user completes a quiz.

4. Configure the trigger:

Field	Required	What it does
Quiz	Yes	Select the quiz to watch, or choose Any quiz.
Result	Yes	Select Passed. This is what makes the automation run only after a passing attempt.

The trigger reads the completed attempt's status and matches Passed only when the attempt has a passing result.

Step 3: Add the "Send an email" action

1. Click Add Action.

2. Choose WordPress as the app.

3. Select the action Send an email.

Step 4: Configure the email

For example:

• To: the student
• Subject: Congratulations! You passed {{trigger:QUIZ_TITLE}}
• Body: Congratulations on passing {{trigger:QUIZ_TITLE}}. Your result was {{trigger:RESULT}} with a grade of {{trigger:GRADE}}%.
• Format: HTML or Plain text

Use the token picker in the email fields to insert the quiz and result values.

Step 5: Set the steps Live and save

1. Set both the trigger and the action to Live.
2. Click Save.

Quiz tokens you can use

Token	What it holds
Quiz ID	The numeric ID of the quiz.
Quiz title	The quiz name.
Quiz URL	The quiz permalink.
Passed	A boolean indicating whether the attempt passed.
Result	A human-readable result such as Passed or Failed.
Grade percentage	The student's grade percentage.
Attempt ID	The LifterLMS attempt ID.
Lesson ID	The lesson containing the quiz, when available.

How to test it

1. Log in as a test student.
2. Take the selected quiz.
3. Submit an attempt that meets the quiz's passing requirement.
4. Check the student's inbox for the email.
5. If the email does not arrive, open Zapify → Logs and check whether the attempt was recorded as Passed.

Conclusion

By setting the quiz trigger's Result to Passed, Zapify can turn successful quiz attempts into immediate congratulations, next-step instructions, certificates, or instructor notifications.
