When do I get email notifications about task status changes?
You’ll receive an email when:
- Someone assigns a task to you
- Someone assigns a checklist item to you
- Someone adds a comment to a task and tags you for notification.
Managing task assignment notifications
If you prefer not to receive emails about task & checklist assignments, you can disable them:
- Go to My Profile → Edit my details
- Uncheck Notify me by email when tasks are assigned to me
Comment notifications cannot be disabled. In order not to receive an email about a new comment, your name has to be removed from the comment’s recipient list.
Optional email notifications
Kanban Tool also offers additional, optional email updates to keep you informed:
- Work Summary: A daily overview sent at the end of each day. Learn how to manage it here.
- Due Date Reminder: Notifies you on the morning of a task’s due date or the evening before (arrival time needs configuring on My Profile).
You can also set reminders on individual tasks only. Read more about both these reminder types here. - Fully custom notifications (Enterprise plan only): Automated alerts based on board or card events. Learn how to set them up through Process Automation.
