To ensure recipients receive notifications triggered by a workflow, they must have access to the target record. Ensure that the following instances are resolved so that the selected recipients receive the configured notifications without any hindrances.
- No access to report - The recipient should have access to the report for which the notification is triggered. User added to the application can be granted access through user permissions in the Application Settings tab of an application.
- Target record not displayed in a filtered report - If a filter has been applied to a report, only the records that satisfy the filter will be listed in it. The target record needs to be displayed in the report in order to receive notifications regarding it.
- No access to target record - Users added to the application will only have access to the records added by default and receive it's related notifications.
- If role hierarchy is enabled, the recipients will receive notifications for the records they have access to, based on the hierarchy and the assigned record owner.
- If you want them to get notifications regarding all records added by everyone, the user needs to be assigned with the View all permission in the Application Settings tab.
Note: By default, developers in an application (when
environments is disabled) and admins will have access to the application, report, and records.
- Environments is enabled - While developers can't get notifications of the production environment, they or admin can be configured to receive notifications while testing the application in the development and stage environments. By doing so, you can avoid unnecessary spam notifications being sent to the preconfigured recipient in those actions. This can be configured from the development and stage environments' settings.
