# Email Tracking
Email tracking allows you to confirm whether your email was received and opened by the recipient. This can be particularly useful for important or time-sensitive communications. Please note email tracking is a Pro feature only available on our Pro and Teams tiers.
**In this article, you will learn how to:**
1. Activate tracking on emails
2. Activate tracking on signature requests
#### Activate tracking on an email
To activate tracking, first, you need to add an email block to your workflow:
In this example, we are going to select Gmail:
After you have opened the email block on the right-hand side, you will see the option "Email tracking".
Turn it on.
From now on, every time a recipient opens your emails, it will be tracked on your output page by hovering your cursor over the eye icon as shown below:
#### Activate tracking on a Signature request
To activate tracking, you need to add a signature request block to your workflow:
Choose the "Request Signatures" option:
Turn on the "Email Tracking" option:
You've got it! From now on, every time a recipient opens your signature request emails, it will be tracked on your output page by hovering your cursor over the eye icon as shown below:
