Set notification preferences for Taxonomy

When you're working with components, and you select an option that requires Inspire to perform a task, such as after applying a taxonomy, you get a notification about it. You can review the list of actions in the Taxonomy module that trigger a notification and configure your preferences for whether you want a notification, and where you want to see it.

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 at the module-level for Taxonomy, global Notifications must also be On. Set global notification preferences.
  • Look for the module name in a grey title bar.

  • You can only turn notifications On or Off for the entire module.
  • You can't set a preference for where notifications are sent for the entire module.
  • You can set a preference for where each notification is sent at the module sub-level for each action.
  • For more information on notification preferences, read Change your notification preferences.

You can manage notifications at the global, module, and action level. If you set all three levels of notification preferences, Inspire uses the most granular setting instead of the global setting.

For example: if you set

  • Global
    • Notifications are On
    • Only In-app selected
  • Module
    • Components notifications are On
  • Action
    • Only Email selected (For Notify when a new branch is created)

When a new branch is created, you receive an Email notification only.

If you want to set any preferences at the action level, you must turn on global Notifications and module Taxonomy notifications.

To set module notification preferences for Taxonomy:

  1. In the top right corner of the Inspire menu bar, click the Settings option.
  2. In Notifications:
    1. Select On.
    2. Optionally, select where you want to see a notification if a preference is not set at the module and action level.
  3. Scroll down to the Taxonomy notification settings, and in the grey title bar, select On.
  4. Now you can select where you want to receive the notification as Email, Slack (if enabled), and In-app.
    If you don't set a preference for a Taxonomy module action, Inspire uses the global Notification preference.
