# Notification settings

> Get informed about experiment and snippet changes by email or Slack.



Each team member decides for themselves whether to receive notifications and through which channel.

## When you are notified

* An experiment is created.
* An experiment is started, paused or archived.
* An experiment is removed.
* The snippet is updated or published, which means any project-wide change that goes live.

## Email

No setup is needed. Notifications go to the email address of your user account.

## Slack

1. Open the apps area of your Slack workspace (`https://{yourteam}.slack.com/apps`).
2. Add an **Incoming Webhook** configuration and copy the webhook URL.
3. Paste the URL into the Slack field in your notification settings in ABlyft and save.

## Choose channels and test them

In your notification settings, switch on **Notify me via email** and/or **Notify me via slack** (with the incoming
webhook URL from your Slack workspace). After saving, use **Send test notification** to check that your settings work.
