How to set sending notifications about specific user activity to a certain email address?
How to set sending notifications about specific user activity to a certain email address?
There are two ways to set sending notifications to a certain email address.
If the employee whose email address you want to notify is an administrator of your space:
Invite them as an administrator to Spacebring.
Set their administrator permissions, as needed, if your Spacebring plan allows for this feature.
Ask them to log in to Spacebring, navigate to the Account > Notifications page, enable the desired notifications, and then toggle on the "Email" switch located at the bottom of the page.
If you prefer not to invite the email address as an administrator to Spacebring, you can set up an automation using Zapier:
Create a Zapier automation designed to send emails.
In the "Trigger" step, select Spacebring and choose the specific user activity event you wish to send notifications about.
In the "Action" step, select your preferred email application (e.g., Gmail, Outlook) and enter the dedicated email address where you want to receive notifications.
Once set up, this Zapier automation will automatically send an email notification to the specified address every time the chosen user activity occurs in Spacebring.
