Brandfolder offers a notifications experience that allows you to stay up to date on what is happening in your Brandfolder both in-app as well as via email.
Viewing and Managing Notifications
- Navigate to Hi, [Your Name] in the top right-hand corner and select My Profile.
- You will be redirected to your profile page. On the left-hand side, you will find options for Notifications and Notification Settings.
Notifications
The notifications area allows you to view updates, alerts, and requests for your Brandfolder(s). The notifications you see in this area are dependent on your user permission level. You can filter notifications by type by using the dropdown menu in the top right-hand corner of the page.
At the end of this article, you will find a chart that addresses what notifications you can expect to see based on your user permissions.
Notifications found in this area are deleted after 180 days (6 months).
Notification Settings
The notification settings area is where users can opt-in and out of receiving email notifications. By default, all users are opted into receiving email and in-app notifications. Do note that you can't unsubscribe from in-app notifications.
The first opt-in and out option is for marketing news and information sent via email. This is for Brandfolder marketing information, not for your company's marketing team.
The second opt-in area is for Brandfolders, Collections, and Workspaces. Here you can elect to receive email notifications for all Brandfolders, Collections, or Workspaces or personalize your notification experience.
Notification Details
Brandfolder has 16 notification types. Receiving notifications depends on your user permissions on the resource and actions you may have taken within the resource. Below you will find two charts that outline the notification experience.
