      Disable Default Team Role-based Email Notifications

      Two Line OfieREQUIRED: Reach out to your Customer Success Manager to take advantage of this feature.


      By default, if you have an email associated with your Account, KaiNexus will automatically send you email notifications pertaining to Items within the system in which you are a member of the Team. On a Template by Template basis, you can decide to have these types of email notifications be disabled for your Users.

      For example, this means that if you were to become an Author of an Idea Template in your system, you have the ability to disable the email notification that would be generated and sent out to your email notifying you of that action.

      Which Notifications can be disabled?

      Two Line OfieNOTE: Remember, by default you will only receive these notifications if you are the specified Team Role on the Item.
