If you are the Admin, you can go to the Subscription setup page and click the button to send out a test Subscription., That basically forces out the Subscription at will. It does take a few minutes to get though the queue and get processes.

If you want to make a URL formula button to force out a Subscription, you can mimic the URL that you see when you click that button.

URLRoot() & "db/" & [_DBID_TABLE_NAME_GOES_HERE] & "?a=SendSubscription&ID=XX"
Replace XX with the Subscription number you see in the URL when working with the Subscription.

nope, i mean just a simple email notification trigger on a checkbox. I actually did some research on the emails. Turns out it was stuck in the SparkPost queue, not the Quickbase queue. Never happened before, so it was very strange.
