All about email notifications
| What are Email Notifications? |
|---|
| Email Notifications are the system-generated messages IdeaScale automatically sends in response to actions taken within a community, with the specific notifications received varying by role. |
IdeaScale automates email notifications triggered by actions taken within a community. The notifications received vary based on role — a Community Administrator, Community Moderator, and Community Member each receive a different set of notifications, and the administrative settings that trigger them are configured separately.
