In-app notifications are available only for users with Administrator and / or Instructor roles.
EchoVideo now provides in-app notifications, customizable to things most important to you. The Notification icon displays in the upper-right of your EchoVideo toolbar.
Notifications are customized by each user from the Account Settings page, as shown in the below figure. Furthermore, because in-app notifications are individual user-based, they will not change or override any email notifications your organization has in place; they appear in addition to email notifications.
To Enable Notifications
- Log into EchoVideo.
- Click the Settings icon and then choose Account Settings.
- Click Notifications from the menu on the left.
- Enable the main notification toggle next to Notify Me About.
All notification options are enabled.
- Configure your notification settings:
- Start receiving and viewing notifications.
Choose who you want to trigger the notifications you receive
When notifications are enabled, you can refine what you receive by choosing who you want to trigger your notifications. For example, you may never want to receive notifications for actions you took within the system because you know that you performed those actions - OR - you may always want to receive notifications for your actions as a reminder or a way to double-check your work. The following groups are available options:
-
System
These are actions that are system-generated or automatic. They may include processing scheduled captures, transcripts becoming available for content published into a section with ASR (All Section Content) toggled on, etc. -
Administrator
These are actions that an Admin in the system has taken. They may include an Admin manually reprocessing content, archiving content, ordering closed captions, etc. -
Other
These are actions that other non-admin users (instructors, schedulers, etc.) in the system perform. They may include a student creating a new Q&A post in your course, a TA creating or editing a transcript, etc. -
Me
These are actions that you trigger within the system. They may include deleting your content, ordering a transcript, responding to a Q&A post, etc.
Select at least one option to receive notifications.
Choose what you want to trigger the notifications you receive
When notifications are enabled, you can refine what you receive by choosing what types of events you want to trigger your notifications. For example, you may never want to receive media processing notifications because you already receive email notifications on these events - OR - you may always want to receive processing notifications because you work within EchoVideo more frequently and might not want to check your email. The following events are available options.
-
Processing Started
Enable this to get notified when media has started processing. You can choose to get success notifications, failed notifications, or both. -
Processing Complete
Enable this to get notified when content becomes available for viewing / editing. You can choose to get success notifications, failed notifications, or both. -
Transcript and Captions
Enable this to get notified when transcripts and / or captions become available. You can choose to get success notifications, failed notifications, or both. -
Management
Enable this to get notified when content is deleted / soft deleted, archived, or restored. -
Engagement
Enable this to get notified when there is new engagement activity from a learner, teaching assistant, or another instructor in one of your courses.
Select at least one option to receive notifications.
