Update notification recipients
Set who receives one notification email of a form.
MCP tool formstack_write → update_notification_recipients
Replaces the recipients of a notification email with the list you pass, the same as editing the Notification Email section of the form's Settings > Emails & Redirects. Pass the full list, including recipients to keep. The response returns the old and the new list. It changes recipients only: send option, message and Email Logic stay as they are. The next submission goes to the new list. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
