Notification Groups are recipient groups that will receive alerts related to events in the streams. When a designated event occurs, you can select the notification group that receives the email alerts.
To avoid large amounts of emails being sent for the same issue, there is a cool-down period of 30 minutes during which email sending is suspended. During this time, you will only receive one email for a specific issue in a specific stream, even if the issue occurs multiple times.
For information on streams, see Streams.
Creating a Notification Group
To create your first notification group, click Notification Groups from the navigation panel on the left, then click the Create notification group button in in the Notification Groups view.
If there is already an existing notification group, you can view and access your notification groups from the Notification Groups view. The view shows information about the defined notification groups, such as the name of the group, description of the group, and the number of recipients in the group.
In the Notification Groups view, you can create, delete, or edit notification groups.
To create a new notification group, click Create notification group. You are prompted to enter the name and description of the group, and one or more recipient email addresses.
Editing or Deleting a Notification Group
In the Notification Groups view, you can navigate between the current notification groups.
Click Edit
to edit the name, description, and email recipients of a notification group.
Click Delete
to delete a notification group. The delete option permanently removes the notification group and removes the group from any streams.
