There are several options available to notify you when a new text message is received. This article focuses on three notification options generated by Sakari itself.
- SMS
- Browser (requires you to enable Chrome Desktop notifications)
Important
- Account Administrators cannot configure notifications on a User's behalf for security reasons.
- Only the logged-in User can choose notification options in Sakari
- Their choices will only be relevant to their User profile (i.e. only they will receive the selected notifications).
