Tired of receiving countless email notifications in your mailbox? Or maybe you prefer to have all your monday.com notifications sent to your email? You can easily customize your email notifications in your profile settings. Pick which email notification you'd like to receive and which ones you would never want to see again. 📩

Locating email notification settings

To manage your email notifications, click your profile picture, located in the upper right corner of your screen, and select "My profile", like this:

From your profile section, click the "Notifications" tab and then on the dropdown next to "Email notifications" as shown below.

Customize your preferences

From the email notifications dropdown, you will be able to select which types of notifications you'd like to receive in the form of an email. Just tick the box besides the emails you want, and leave the box blank where you don't want to be notified.

In addition to deciding which actions across your account trigger email notifications, you can also choose to receive daily emails about your highlights in your account. Read on below to learn more about "My highlights".

My highlights

"My highlights" is a daily summary of what is happening on your account and the boards and items you are subscribed to. If you opt into daily highlight emails, you will receive it every morning between 9am and 11am

Show me what the email includes

New information on your Main Boards
The trending Main Boards (most visited, viewed, and liked, across your account)
Most popular updates on your Main Boards
Highlights and updates across your account
Items that are assigned to you in the People Column that are coming up this week from all your boards
New team members to your account

Note: If one of these topics doesn't appear in an email, it means we had no relevant updates to send you.

All users who subscribe to "My highlights" will receive this email! To subscribe to "My highlights", simply select "My highlights (daily email)" in your email notification preferences, and choose whether you want to show information about all dates from your items, or only deadlines:

You can unsubscribe by just un-ticking the box.

Note: No need to click "Save", these changes are saved automatically!

To simplify the work process, you can like and reply to updates from within the email itself, without having to go to the update on monday.

How to unsubscribe from a specific type of email notification

If you are getting specific types of email notifications that you no longer wish to receive, you can unsubscribe right from your email inbox!

For example, I recently received an email notification letting me know that a team member accepted my invitation to my monday.com account which I no longer wish to receive. All I have to do is scroll to the bottom of the email and click "stop these emails", like this:

Can admins change other's notifications settings?

Admins can manage your users' notifications from the Administration section. To do this, click your profile picture, and then select "Administartion" and click into the user management section. From here, click on the name of the user which you'd like to edit their notification settings.

Next, click on "Edit profile" and then open the "Notifications" tab. All you have to do now is make the desired changes and click on "Finish" at the top of the screen once complete!

Set up account default notification settings

Account admins can now customize the default email notification settings that are in place for each new user added to an account. To access this feature, click on your profile picture in the bottom left corner of the screen and select "Administration". Then, click on the "Customization" section and then "User notifications" as shown below.

Note: The notification settings of existing users will not be affected by adjusting the default notification settings as shown above.

From here, you can select any email notifications that you'd like every new user to receive by default, or de-select any email notification settings that you prefer any new user not to receive.

Note: If you are not receiving email notifications, it is possible that your settings have been configured to mute notifications. Read our article on Notifications explained for more information on how to change these settings
