Email Service

The Email Service is called whenever a notification needs to be sent to a Journey Manager user. Journey Manager provides email-based implementations for notification.

info

You can implement your own notification services that can use email or other communication channels; for example, you could provide an SMS notification service.

The Email Service can be configured on multiple levels, and is resolved in the following order:

  • Form Version
  • Organization
  • Global Service

The global default Email Service is used throughout, but can be overridden on the organization and form version level for sending submission related messages to applicants.
