Can I trigger something after a ListEmail is sent?

Hello, I would like to set up an apex trigger after a ListEmail is sent. However, i am seeing that ListEmail object is not a choice in the list of trigger objects. There is only "ListEmailChangeEvent". I am not familiar with that trigger. What would be an example of how I could use the ListEmailChangeEvent object trigger to fire after a ListEmail is sent?

Hi Michael,

Mass email actions do not invoke triggers,  check below reference for same.

https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.apexcode.meta/apexcode/apex_triggers_ignoring_operations.htm

An alternate approach would be try to use scheduled apex for operations around list emails.

Hope this helps...

Thanks,

ok- that's good to know. Thank you. 

Could the ListEmailChangeEvent class be trigger when a Listemail is sent?

As per my understanding, 'ListEmailChangeEvent' can't be used for ListEmail.
