User guideManaging notifications from a board
You can customize the way you receive notifications from your board. Notifications appear as both in-app messages and emails, based on how you configured your account's notifications.
By default, you will be notified about all updates from your board.
To change the notification settings for a board, click the More options button (
) > Notifications
Note:
Users with the role Member or Initiator can click the Notifications icon on the board page to set notification preferences.
Select from one of the following options and then click Save:
- Everything - You will receive all notifications from the board.
- Action items - You will receive notifications only if something requires your action.
- Nothing - You will not receive any notifications.
Your preference only applies to certain events in a board. Here's a summary of these events, the applicability of notifications, and who receive them.
