Where to configure
Open Settings and click the Status Notifications sub-tab.
Two notification categories are togglable independently:
- Deployment Notifications, alerts on theme deployments (start, complete, fail, rollback).
- Data Migration Notifications, alerts on bulk and selective migrations.
Email notifications
Email is the simplest path. No webhook configuration needed.- Open Settings, Status Notifications.
- Enter an email address in the Email Notification field.
- Click the + button to add it. The address appears as a chip; you can add multiple addresses by repeating.
- Tick Deployment Notifications, Data Migration Notifications, or both.
- Click Send Test Email & Save to verify routing and persist the configuration.
To remove an address, click the X on its chip. To re-test, use the same Send Test Email & Save button.

- In Slack, click the ”…” next to Channels in the sidebar.
- Choose Create a channel.

Important to remember
- After any change to the email checkboxes or addresses, click Send Test Email & Save to persist the change. The button doubles as save.

- Notifications are not user-specific. If you have set up an email or webhook channel, every event of the enabled types fires to that destination. Filter at the Slack or Teams side if needed.
