Set notification preferences for everything else

When you're working in Inspire, and you select an option that requires Inspire to perform a task, you get a notification about it. If you review the list of actions on the Notifications tab that triggers a notification and you don't find one you want to turn On or Off, you can turn set notifications for Everything Else.

All new users added on or after March 6, 2024 have all notifications turned on by default.

Tips and tricks

  • If you want to set preferences for Everything Else, global Notifications must also be On. Set global notification preferences.
  • Inspire uses global Notifications to determine where to send the notification (Email, Slack, In-app).
  • Look for the section name in a grey title bar.
