I have a situation where I want a certain type of Task to trigger an email alert to the "Who" Contact or Lead that the task is related to. In the Spring '16 release Salesforce added the ability to send Email Alerts on Task workflows, which is great, but I can't seem to make it send to the related Lead or Contact – they don't come up as options for the Recipient.
Has anyone found a workaround to this?
