My Notifications

Types

Smartfacts has two types of notifications:

  1. Manual Subscriptions: Smartfacts allows you to subscribe to a list of events e.g. an artifact has been changed, a comment has been added to a certain artifact etc. Every subscription has to be defined in a context. This means that you can pick any node in the project tree and add a subscription to a certain type of event to this node.

Example: You add a subscription to the event "Comment Added" to a package in a model.
Result: Whenever a comment is added to a model element or diagram which is located under the package you have subscribed to, a notification will be generated.

Manual Subscriptions

Manual subscriptions to events have to be managed explicitly. You may add manual subscriptions to the following elements of your project tree:

At these nodes of the project tree...

...these events can be subscribed

Deleting a Manual Subscription

You can temporarily deactivate a manual subscription if you do not wish to be notified.

Investigating a Subscription

Selecting a subscription will expand the tree at the relevant node and allow you to add other subscriptions or delete the subscription.
