How can I trigger custom email automation with my unique signup form?

[ankit7659]

Hello Shopify Community,

I am currently facing a challenge with my custom newsletter automation. I have created a custom newsletter and I want my custom automations to be triggered when someone signs up through my custom signup form. I have two newsletters working on my website, but I want this specific automation to work only with my custom signup form.

I understand that the default newsletter is embedded before the changes I have made, and the system works with the data it is fed. However, I am looking for a way to make my custom signup form work with the system. I was advised that I might need to process the coding for the email automation in a specific section, but I am not well-versed in coding.
