How to send an automated email AFTER double opt-in is confirmed

Question:
Is it possible to send an automated email AFTER a subscriber confirms subscription?

Product:
Wix Automations; Wix Ascend

What are you trying to achieve:
I’m in the process of setting a newsletter and have created an automated “drip” campaign email once the subscriber fills out the form and clicks the double-opt-in. What I want to do is to have the automation email triggered AFTER the subscriber clicks “confirm subscription” in their confirmation email after double opt-in.

What have you already tried:
I’ve already set up the automated email to be triggered once the form is submitted, and even customized the “confirm subscription” email. But as of now, the subscribe confirmation email and the “drip/thank you” email are being sent at the same time.

Additional information:
I have a freebie/ebook I want to give to new subscribers to my newsletter, but I don’t want to send it until AFTER they confirm their subscription in the confirmation email for added security.

Hello there,

Any updates on the topic? It is a basic 101 for email marketing, and automations. I am a little bit disappointed about the email marketing and automations handling by Wix. Missing basic functions and an easy usability. Help desk isn’t always up and running on these topics either.
