Notifications

In CloudNine™ Explore, users can automatically generate and send email notifications to specific recipients when Inventory, Analysis, OCR, Indexing, Near-Duplicate Detection, Email Threading, and/or Export jobs are completed. Notifications can be set up globally for all cases. Notifications are created and managed from the Notifications tab in the Environment Settings window.

If there are errors sending an email notification, the error is written to the notification log located in the case directory:\$EDA\$Logs\(date of email)\(type of email notification).  It will be located in the bottom of the last log of that type.

Important

If the user stops any process for which an email notification can be sent by clicking the "Suspend Case" button on the Global Dashboard, or stops an Export process by clicking the "Stop" button on the Export tab, an email notification will not be sent.

SMTP Configuration

When setting up notifications, you can manually configure the SMTP server information to send the notification emails from a specific SMTP server and email address in the SMTP Configuration section of the Notifications tab.

1.In the Server field, type the SMTP mail server address (ex: smtp.gmail.com).  The Port field defaults to 0.

2.In the Port field, enter the port number for connecting to the SMTP server.

3.The User ID and Password fields only need to be filled out if the SMTP server requires authentication.  If the server requires authentication, enter the full email address for the email account from which you want to send the notifications in the User field, and enter the password for that user in the Password field.

4.Use SSL - Enable SSL to use SSL otherwise the default is TLS.

Warning

You will need to configure the email used to allow apps to send emails through your email account. For example, with Microsoft, Gmail, and Yahoo. Since this changes the security of your email, you may want to configure a separate email account for this purpose alone.
