Setting Up Alert Notifications

Newsroom allows your editorial team to receive notifications of the Article Alerts, prompting them to take real-time action to improve user engagement. These alerts can be sent to your email inbox, your Slack account via a Slackbot message, or via Mobile Push, keeping you completely up to date with recommended actions for your site.

You are able to choose the alerts you care about most.  This allows you to filter any of the Alert views to only show these alerts, and separately you can choose how to receive a notification when there is a new alert.

Customize “My Alerts”

Here’s how to customize the alerts included in My Alerts:

1. Click on your username at the top left corner of the page, and choose Manage Alerts
2. You will see two tabs – “My Alerts” and “Notification Settings.
3. Choose which Alerts you want to be included in “My Alerts”.  You can choose each alert for “Everything” which includes all articles on the site, “My Articles” which includes alerts for articles with the byline selected in My Profile Settings, or “My Sections” which includes alerts for articles included in sections you’ve selected in My Profile Settings.Note that the Front Page and Topic Insights alerts are only available for the entire site.
4. Click Save at the bottom of the page.
