Alerts

The component provides advanced tools for creating, managing and sending out alerts and notifications based on SharePoint content and changes.

Advantages compared to the built-in alert capabilities:

1. Notifications – alerts sent according to a date/time column of the item. You can be notified before or after the date value and the notification can be repeated at pre-set intervals for a pre-set number of times.
2. Conditions – alerts can optionally be sent only when one or more conditions apply.
3. Recipients – you can send alerts to SharePoint users, users in a User/Group column of the item or emails in a text column, users in a Contacts list or to manually specified e-mail addresses.
4. Mail Templates – users can create and re-use their own alert email templates. The administrator can create templates that can be shared by all users.
5. Buttons - execute actions directly from buttons within email messages. For example, approve requests directly from the email.
6. URL Zones – URLs in the alerts can be transformed into a zone of your choosing. On premises only.
