Overview

 

The PeerLink Hub supports the concept of "Email Alert Configurations" where a single configuration (consisting of a unique name, a selection of alert types along with a list of email addresses) can be applied to multiple file collaboration jobs without requiring repeat entry for each job. When an Email Alert configuration is applied to a job, an email will be sent to all listed recipients anytime a selected alert type is triggered by that job.

 

To mange these configurations, navigate to the Window menu of the PeerLink Hub, select Preferences, then navigate to and select Email Alerts from the tree node on the left. The following screen represents the list of defined Email Alert configurations, along with buttons to add new ones and edit, copy and remove existing ones.
