Notifications: a step by step example

This chapter explains, step by step, how to configure a notification in order to send an email when a User Request is assigned to an agent. The notification will be sent to the “Agent” to which the ticket has just been assigned.

Go to the “Admin tools / Notifications” page, in the “Triggers” tab click on the “Create a new Trigger” link (if there are no triggers already) or click on the “New…” button to create a new Trigger.
