A brief overview of how notifications work in Smartlinks
Note: This guide refers to both emails and in-app notifications
Wondering how Smartlinks chooses who to notify when there's a link request or a guest post request? Let's dive in for a quick, clear breakdown!
Link Request Notifications
- Check Collaborators:
- Navigate to your page and peek just below the title to see if any collaborators are listed.
- No Collaborators?
- If your Website Member access is set to Public to Organization: All organization members get notified.
- If your Website Member access is set to Join on Request/Private: Only members who are invited will get the alert.
- With Collaborators:
- Notifications are exclusively sent to listed collaborators.
When a chat button is clicked on a Link Request card and a chat is triggered, it follows the same flow as defined above.
Guest Post Notifications
- If your Website Member access is set to Public to Org, all organization members would be notified.
- If your Website Member access is set to Join on request or Private then only the members explicitly invited to the website would be notified
When a chat button is clicked on a Guest Post card and a chat is triggered, it follows the same flow as defined above.
Chat Notifications
Lets understand how chat notifications work:
1. Chat related to Link Requests
- It follows the same rules as defined here.
2. Chat related to Guest Posts
- It follows the same rules as defined here.
3. Direct Chat between one or more users
- If you are added as a collaborator to a chat channel and a chat is triggered.
- The system would wait for 3 hours before determining that you haven’t seen the chat. If that’s the case that it would immediately send across an email.
- The system also sends across weekly notification for un-read chats.
4. Public channel chats
- Public channel chats are treated differently compared to direct chats.
- In this case unless you are directly tagged by a user in a chat, you won’t receive unread chat email.
Smile, you’re now a whiz at Smartlinks notifications!
