  1. Service: Be informed about the activities within a service.

  2. Folder: Be informed if a change is made within a file (relevant for the services, „Facts“, „Downloads“, and „Dialog.“

  3. infoID: Be informed if a concrete fact has changed.

In order to receive the notification e-mails, certain changes must be made in the „Settings“. There are two ways of getting to the Notification Settings. „Settings“

  2. How often you would like to be informed about the activities on the platform.

Navigation through the individual services
It doesn’t matter in which service you are, there is always on the left side of the page the link „Notification settings for [Service]“ (If you have opened a form, you will not be able to see this link).

Clicking this link takes you first to the notification settings of this special service. But you can also navigate from there to the general notification settings and the notification settings of the other services.
