Send notification

To send a notification, first define the recipient users and user groups. Then enter the notification subject and the message. You can also specify the user from metadata or state transitions.

The Add Placeholder... buttons can be used to insert values from the object metadata to the subject line or message content (see also the placeholder descriptions under Personalizing Notification Messages).

Set properties

You can define different object properties and values to be applied when an object's state is changed. For example, you can make the Published version label to be assigned to a drawing when the drawing moves to the Approved state.
