Managing Notifications

Managing Notifications

All the notifications created in your platform are listed in the Notifications area of the Admin Menu. Find the notification in the list, and click on the item in the Scheduled column to edit the notification schedule, or on the Filter, Roles, or Associated Courses columns to edit the corresponding details.

At the end of the notification row, use the checkmark to activate or deactivate the notification. Use the pen and paper icon to edit the details of the notification and the red X to delete it. 

Before editing a notification, make sure that the notification is not running. We strongly discourage you from editing the notification event type, since this change may have an impact on the users involved in the notification. If you need to change the notification event type, create a new notification instead. 

Notes about Managing Notifications

• If a Power User profile has permission to manage notifications, the Power Users assigned to that profile will see the existing notifications set specifically for the branches or the courses that they manage. If the notification is within the Power Users' visibility, then they can see the notification; if the notification has a wider set of courses or branches not in the Power Users' visibility, then they won't see the notification. Please keep this in mind when assigning profile permissions.
• Every notification modification will trigger a scheduled job deletion and recreation. 
• Extended Enterprise Superadmins should be careful to edit notifications while logged into the domain they were originally created in as editing a notification previously created on a different domain will change the base URL used in short-codes substitutions.
