Alert emails: immediate, daily or weekly digest, or off

Under Notifications, each user tunes how each alert type reaches them by email. These settings are personal — yours affect only you.

The four modes#

• Immediate email — sent the moment the alert opens. The default for critical severity.
• Daily digest — one morning summary of everything open, grouped and skimmable. The default for everything else.
• Weekly digest — the same summary, once a week on Monday morning. Good for routine items you review on a weekly rhythm.
• Off — no email for that type; the alert still appears in the portal and still counts in the badge.

You can mix them: types set to daily arrive in the daily summary, types set to weekly in the Monday summary.

A sensible setup#

1. Leave critical types on immediate — you want to know now.
2. Keep routine expirations on a digest — one email a day (or a week) beats ten.
3. Turn off only what genuinely is not your job; the portal remains the source of truth.

Note: Chat channels (Slack, Teams, Discord) are configured separately under Integrations, route by alert category, and are independent of anyone's email preferences.
