A notification is a mechanism for alerting people of events within the FlexDeploy application. Alerting mechanism is email. Any person with an email address can subscribe to specific events and receive notifications, whether they are a configured user within FlexDeploy or not. Unlike approvals, notifications are additive (on Project Explorer hierarchy) and any notification that is found will be evaluated. This is accomplished by searching up the project navigation tree from the deploying application or project until the root folder is reached.
Notification setup described in this section is with respect to project level requests (build, deploy, test, utility etc.). Requests can be either manually triggered or automatically including pipeline execution.
