Notifications (basics)
In the case of important activities, notifications are triggered in easydoo to the persons involved.
There are two types of notifications in easydoo:
- In-app notifications that are triggered to one or more users within the easydoo app.
- Email notifications that are triggered to one or more users via email.

In Fig. 1 you can see that the access rights are controlled via the cabinet. Work items, sessions, documents and chats are stored in folders. Individual users and/or teams may be involved in this content. You can see who exactly is involved by clicking on this icon:
As soon as a relevant action is performed on one of the previously mentioned objects, all participants will receive an in-app notification.
In-app notifications
You can be involved as a participant in all work items, meetings, documents and chats. As soon as someone is involved, they are informed in the app about significant changes to the corresponding element.
The in-app notifications can be opened in the easydoo app under the main menu item "Activities".
The affected item can be opened by clicking on the notification (see Viewing notifications). The notifications can be filtered by type (see Filter notifications by type).

Email Notifications
