How to Enable Email Notifications

Published in Knowledge Base.

Managing a large display network can be overwhelming. With AnySignage email notifications, the administrator will receive emails whenever a display encounters an error or goes offline for an extended period.

Here, we explain how to enable email notifications if needed.

  1. From the Administration Menu, select Settings.
  2. Under the Maintenance tab, enable Email Alert.
  3. Set the Max Display Timeout as needed. This defines how long a display remains offline before the CMS sends an email notification. Adjust this time based on your preference.
  4. (Optional) Enable Send Repeat Display Timeout if you want repeated alerts.

Configuring Email Recipients

  1. Under the Network tab, add the email address of the administrator who should receive notifications. Please note that this field accepts a single email address only.
  2. Click Save.

Enabling Alerts for Individual Displays

  1. Navigate to Display Management and browse the list of displays.
  2. Edit each display where you want email alerts enabled.
  3. Under Display Maintenance, enable Email Alerts.
  4. Select Use Global Timeout, then click Save.

Once these settings are applied, you will receive email notifications whenever an error occurs on any configured display.
