Notifications for an organization

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

Notifications for an organization can be configured for:

• All environments belonging to all applications.
• A type of environment (production or non-production) belonging to all applications.
• A type of environment (production or non-production) belonging to a single application.
• A specific environment belonging to a single application.

Notifications for an organization’s applications are managed in the organization view of the VIP Dashboard.
