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.
