Workspace notifications


Article Summary

As a Site Administrator you can configure workspace notifications to ensure Workspace Owners and workspace members are updated about the workspaces they have joined. Here you can see the full list of workspace notifications.

By default, users will receive web notifications while logged in and email notifications while offline.

Some workspace members will prefer to browse a workspace at their own pace, and don't want to be notified of changes or additions to the workspace. Members can mute all workspace notifications by clicking the Joined dropdown, then Mute notifications.
