About Automated Notifications
Setting Up Automated Notifications
The automated notifications feature is set up by performing the following tasks:
•
Enabling and configuring one of the notification types and setting preferences
for that notification type; see "Setting Up Automated Notifications" on
page 569 for complete details.
•
Customizing the email notification messages that are sent. You do this by
changing the template associated with a type of notification. You can change
the contents of the message of both plain text messages and HTML messages,
or the appearance of HTML messages. See "Customizing Notification
Messages" on page 572 for more information
Types of Automated Notifications
Three types of automated notifications are available:
•
Certificate Issued
•
Request In Queue
•
Certificate Revocation.
Certificate Issued
A notification message is automatically sent to users who have been issued
certificates. A rejection message is sent if the user's certificate request is rejected.
Request in Queue
A notification message is automatically sent to one or more agents when a request
enters the agent request queue, using the email address(es) you set up for the agent
when you set up this feature. There is also a job that sends a notification to agents
about the status of the queue. The job sends a summary of the status at certain
intervals. This notification sends an email every time a message enters the queue.
For more information about the request in queue job, see "RequestInQueueJob," on
page 578.
Certificate Revocation
A notification message is automatically sent to users when their certificate is
revoked.
You can create additional automated notifications using the CMS SDK.
