# Can I set up email notifications for a specific folder?

Automatically send notifications when Assets are added to specific Folders

HIVO allows you to set up **Email and In-app notifications for a specific folder** when **new Assets are uploaded to that folder**.

This allows you to monitor uploads to selected folders without applying the same notification setting across the entire Library.

To set this up:

* Go to **Library** and select the Folder you want to monitor.
* Click the **down arrow** next to the Folder.
* Select **Folder Actions**.
* The Folder Action dialog will open and switch to the **"Set up Notifications" tab**. Then, configure the notification and select the **Users or Groups** that should receive it.

👉 **Note:** Only users with the **Can View All Assets** permission can receive these notifications.

This setting applies specifically to **new Assets uploaded to the selected Folder**. Other types of notifications, such as comments, approvals, or new versions, are managed separately through HIVO's notification settings. The settings are as follows: **Client Profile → Settings →** [**Global Notification Settings**](https://support.hivo.co/client-profile/client-profile-settings/system-and-integration/global-notification-settings).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://support.hivo.co/faqs/can-i-set-up-email-notifications-for-a-specific-folder.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
