Manage Notification Groups

You can create notification groups for a set of notification contacts that should all receive the same notifications from devices in the notification group, such as device reports and automation threshold alarms.

Each notification group is assigned a descriptive name and is associated with at least one device group. You can also add notification contacts and devices that are not in the selected device group(s).

Notification contacts: Who will receive a notification?

• Users in the device group(s) selected for the notification group.

• Individual notification contacts (with or without a user profile) that are not in the device group(s) selected but are assigned to the notification group.

  Note The Active option in the notification contact must be enabled for any user to be able to receive notifications. See Add a notification contact for a user without a user profile and Update notification contact information for a user with a user profile.

Devices: Which devices send notifications?

• Devices in the device group(s) specified for the notification group send a notification.

• Devices that are not in a specified device group but are individually assigned to the notification group send a notification.
