Automation Cloud admin guide
You can manage notifications for your organization in the Manage Notification view from the Notifications settings page.
Only Organization Admins can manage the notifications for a user group or organization.
- Access the external AD user group account in Outlook.
- Go to Group Settings, and then Edit Group.
- Select Let people outside the organization email the group.
You can configure default notification subscriptions at the group level by setting the notification preferences for either:
-
The Default group, which every user is associated with.
-
A local user group defined in your organization.
The Default group is not an actual user group. It acts as a system-wide template that defines baseline notification settings for users who have not configured their own preferences.
You configure default subscriptions for user groups in: Organization Preferences > Notifications > Manage Notification view > Alerting Group Configuration tab.
From there, you can:
-
Edit the Default group
-
Add a local user group and configure its notification preferences
You can configure default subscriptions only for user groups available in Administration > Accounts and local groups.
The following rules determine how default subscriptions are applied:
-
The Default group acts as the baseline for all users.
-
If a user has not customized their notification preferences, the Default group settings apply.
-
If a user has customized their notification preferences, their personal settings apply, except for mandatory subscriptions.
-
If a local user group does not have default notification subscriptions configured in Alerting Group Configuration, the Default group settings apply to that group.
-
Mandatory subscriptions configured in the Default group cannot be changed by users. Only organization administrators can modify them.
-
These rules apply to all users, including users provisioned through external Active Directory (AD) groups.
To configure default notifications:
- In the organization Preferences, go to the Notification settings page.
- Change the view from My Notification to Manage Notification.
- Select the Alerting Group Configuration tab.
-
Choose one of the following:
- To edit the Default group, select Edit.
- To configure a new user
group:
-
Select Add user group.
-
Select the desired group.
-
Select Configure.
-
- Open each service tab (Actions, for example).
- Select the default events users should be subscribed to.
- Optionally configure event visibility: Select the visibility icon next to an event to hide or unhide it.
-
Configure subscription behavior:
- Select the checkboxes under Mandatory to enforce subscriptions that users cannot change.
- Select the checkboxes under Automation Cloud and Email to define default delivery channels.
Tips
- Users are not required to belong to a user group.
When a notification is sent directly to a user:
- If the user has customized preferences, their personal settings apply.
- If the user has not customized preferences, the Default group settings apply.
- Mandatory settings always override personal preferences.
If a user belongs to multiple user groups, their effective subscription is the combined set (union) of:
-
All assigned group subscriptions
-
Their personal preferences
You can view all the notifications that your organization received in the Notifications page. The Notifications page allows you to filter notifications, based on the service they notify you about, their severity, and the time when you received them.
To explore your organization's notifications:
- Open the Notifications panel.
- In the top-right, select the Notifications page
icon.
Filtering your organization's notifications
- Navigate to the Notifications page.
- Search for a keyword inside the Search bar.
- Select Service and filter notifications based on the service they notify about.
- Select Severity and filter notifications based on their severity.
- Select Timestamp and filter notifications based on the time they were sent.
Viewing only unread notifications
- Navigate to the Notifications page.
- Select Unread only in the top-right.
Unsubscribing from tenant or event
From the Notifications page you can unsubscribe from the event or tenant that a notification was received.
- Hover over a notification.
- Select Show more actions.
- Choose to unsubscribe from:
- The event that you're notified about.
- The tenant where the event took place.
Deleting notifications
To delete notifications select Show more actions and then Delete.
You can configure Notification Service systems to use SMTP servers from your own on-premises or cloud networks. If you want to provide additional security to your Notification service system, you can protect it with a firewall, and only allow Notification Service's outbound static IP addresses through it.
However, these IP addresses used by Notification service for external communication can sometimes change as a result of infrastructure deployments. To help you stay informed about any changes, we've organized a list of current outbound static IP addresses, shown in the following table:
Outbound static IP addresses
| IP static addresses |
|---|
| 20.213.69.140/30 |
| 20.92.42.116/30 |
| 20.220.159.8/30 |
| 20.104.134.160/30 |
| 20.239.121.152/30 |
| 20.232.224.12/30 |
| 20.78.114.120/30 |
| 104.215.9.124/30 |
| 20.166.153.132/30 |
| 20.198.150.140/30 |
| 20.23.210.168/30 |
| 20.66.65.144/30 |
| 149.72.70.144 |
Additionally, you can subscribe to updates to be notified of any changes 30 days before they are carried out. This way, you can ensure that your list of allowed IP addresses is always up to date.
You can use the Receive notifications for folders drop-down list to select the folders or subfolders for which you would like to be alerted.
In addition to that, you can select the Include folders that I get added to later option to make sure that, if you are added to a folder, you do not miss any notifications pertaining to it.
