# App user’s birthday automation

This functionality allows you to send a notification and, optionally, award points on their birthday. You can fully customise the notification and the number of points awarded.

**❗Please note:** This automation will only work if a date of birth has been added to the app user's account alongside the automation being activated.

**Step 1**: To find out how many users need their date of birth added. Head to the automations section, hover over the red information icon to the right of the automation:

If you have multiple users needing updating, complete the empty cells in the download, then save as a CSV file:
