Enabling Group Notifications on Locale

With the grouping of notifications now live on Locale, users can:

  • Send a single notification via Email or WhatsApp for all incidents created or escalated throughout an alert run.
    ​
    ​

  • Reduce spam on the communication channels, and ensure they don’t miss out on any incidents.
    ​
    ​

  • Have the ability to automatically resolve the individual incidents belonging to the group notifications.

Here are the following steps to create a group notification:

  1. Click on β€œAdd Subscribers/Notification Channel”
    ​

2. Choose β€œEmail Subscribers” or β€œSend WhatsApp Message"
​
​


3. Enable β€œGroup Notifications” after choosing whether the notification needs to go out for New or Escalated Incidents
​

4. "Save Action" and finish setting up the alert to enable group notifications.

Important points to keep in mind:
​

  1. Group Notifications are currently enabled for Email and WhatsApp notifications alone.
    ​
    ​

  2. Notifications are grouped by alert runs. For example, if an alert runs every 30 minutes, all the incidents assigned to a stakeholder in the last 30 minutes, would be sent as a single notification via their preferred communication channel.
    ​
    ​

  3. Currently, only a member registered on Locale will be able to receive group notifications as they would have the ability to view all incidents on the grouped notifications, on Locale.
