Notifications for an organization

Automated Notifications can be configured for events (e.g. code deployments) that occur on the environments of an organization’s applications.

Manage Notifications for an organization’s applications in the organization view of the VIP Dashboard. Notifications for an organization can be configured per-environment type (production vs. non-production) of its applications, or for a single specific environment.
