Send email with APEX from a custom lookup field on the Task object
OK my fellow Admins, I need some help.
I have a standard object (Task) with a custom field called 'Notify'. It is a lookup field from the USERS object. What I need to happen is when that 'Notify' field is NOT NULL, I need an email to go to that person.
I thought about doing a formula, but can't get it to work so I'm turning to APEX (Which I know nothing about).
All I need, is if that field is filled out, take the inserted user, get the email address, and send them an email with the link to the task.
Any thoughts????

I am positive that, You can write a Process Builder on Task to look up its Lookup to User field and create an alert to send an email to the related user when its not null/ updated.
Search for the Process Builder in the Setup > Quick Find. Its' a wizard that'll let you pick your Object (Task) and then the corresponding acttions.
I believe this should work for you case.
