User Notification Rule

This page explains how to use the user notification rule settings to configure PhixFlow to send emails automatically.

Overview

Use the user notification rule properties tab to define a rule for an email notification. A file exporter or task will use this rule to decide whether or not to email the user.

This properties tab is not available from the repository. It opens from:

  • the File Exporter → User Recipients section → Notification table

  • the Task → Send by Email section → Notification table.
