Steps For Setting Up Engage Notifications

As we've seen in the "Introduction To Engage" article, there are two kinds of notifications in Engage. One kind is the internal activity on Statusbrew and the other is the customizable social notifications. We'll cover the steps to set up both of them here.

Steps To Set Up Statusbrew Notifications

These notifications can be set for:

  • Conversation assigned to you
  • Activity on the assigned conversation
  • Mention anywhere in Statusbrew

Here are the steps to set up the internal activity Engage notifications in Statusbrew:
