Notification

Configure the Notification project action to send email or SMS notifications when a project reaches a workflow step.

Overview

The Notification action sends the notifications configured on the current workflow step. Notifications are defined on the project type step itself (not on the action), so this action simply triggers delivery of whatever is configured there.

Notifications can be sent immediately or after a configurable delay.

Key behaviours:

  • Notifications with no delay (or less than 1 minute) are enqueued immediately
  • Notifications with a SendAfter delay are added to PendingNotificationIds on the project and sent later
  • The action always returns Success — it does not fail if a notification is misconfigured

Notification configuration on the workflow step

Notifications are defined on the project type status, not on the action:

{
  "notifications": [
    {
      "notificationId": "your-notification-id"
    }
  ]
}

To send a notification with a delay:

{
  "notifications": [
    {
      "notificationId": "your-notification-id",
      "sendAfter": "00:30:00"
    }
  ]
}
