A Notification Filter is a way of setting up the system so that when events that you are interested in are added to the calendar, you will automatically receive an EMail message. When you create a Filter, each new event added to the calendar is tested against the Filter, and if it is a match, then you will receive an EMail Notification about the new event. You can filter for specific key words, or for specific key words in a specific set of calendars. You can have as many Filters as you would like.
Click Add Filter at the bottom of the Notification Filter list to create a new filter..
Tip
To prevent multiple Notifications of an edit, a 1 hour delay will elapse between the time an event is approved, and the time that Notification messages will be sent.

Key Words and Specific Set - This type of Filter will look at events added to the specified calendars. If any key words are specified, each event will be checked to see if it contains them. If no key words are specified, then any event added to the specified calendars will be a match.
Notify Others - If you have the permission to create Notification Filters for others, you can add other Connect Daily Users and Groups to this filter so that they will receive the Notification message as well.
Additional EMail Recipients - If you have permission to notify others, you can put in any EMail address you want to receive a copy of the notification. Enter each EMail address separately on a line in the text area.
