Configure e-mail notifications

You can create or edit e-mail notifications to inform users about insight triggers that are executed. The Mail builder provides a visual or a simple text editor for configuring e-mail notifications. The Mail builder editor contains a notification template that you can edit using familiar text formatting options such as font selection or text alignment. In addition, there are various variables available that you can insert into the text.

You can configure e-mail notifications as a separate workflow for an insight trigger or as additional notifications for other workflows when creating insight triggers.

Alternatively, you can edit e-mail notifications of existing insight triggers, as shown below.

Notes

  • The number of e-mails per tenant per day is limited to 1000.

  • The number of e-mails per insight trigger run is limited to 100. All additional e-mails will be skipped for that run.
