Choosing Alert Events for a Folder or Subfolder

You can choose to be notified when content is added or removed for any folder or subfolder to which you have access. The system sends out notifications for events that occur for the folder for which the subscription was chosen and not to its subfolders. To be notified about events for a subfolder, you must subscribe to that subfolder.

To choose notification events for a folder or subfolder

1. Click My Desk > Team > Workspaces. Then click the Name of the workspace.

The workspace's category list and Properties page opens.

2. Click a folder name from the folders list.

Or

From the workspace category list, click Folders and from the Folders page, click the Name of the folder.

To subscribe to a subfolder, click the plus sign to expand the folder list in the Structure Navigator and click the Name of the subfolder.

Or

Click the folder's Name from the Folders page. Then click Subfolders from the folder's category list. Continue drilling down (clicking the subfolder's Name and then Subfolder from the subfolder's category list) until you see the category list and Properties page for the subfolder you want to subscribe to.

From the category list for the folder or subfolder, click Properties.

3. From the Properties page for the folder or subfolder, click Subscribe from the page Actions menu.

The Folder Subscription Options page opens with the alert events listed for the folder/subfolder.

4. To subscribe to an event, check the box to the left of it. To unsubscribe to an event, uncheck the box.
