Tell us what you are trying to do?

I have a parent post type call "Job" and a child post type call "Application".

Within the parent post I have a custom field called "Notification".

The notification field is updated through and edit front end post form. When it is updated I would like the contents of the notification to be sent to all "Application" authors.

Is this feasible?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

You will have to use the Toolset Form's hook "cred_notification_recipients" to add the notification emails on fly and get the related child post autors:

Please check the following related ticket where I shared the solution, If you will require further help, please feel free to get in touch with me. Please note that you will have to set the dynamic parent post ID:

You should try to get prent ID and based on the parent ID try to find all child posts using the Toolset post-relationship API function: toolset_get_related_posts
