Setting Up Failure Email Notifications Only

CheckView provides flexible notification settings to keep you informed about your automated test flows. If you’d like to only receive failure notification emails for your test flows, this guide will walk you through the process. However, please note that CheckView will always send a failure notification and then a success notification the first time a previously failed test passes again to ensure you’re updated on critical test outcomes.

You can configure notification settings at two levels in CheckView:

1. Organization Level: Default settings for all test flows within the organization.

2. Individual Test Flow Level: Custom settings for a specific test flow, overriding the organization-level defaults.

  5. Save Changes
