SOOS has a number of options for how you are notified about scan results.  

To find notification settings, access the Configure settings in the left hand navigation, and then select Notifications.

Enable Notifications 

  • Once on the Notifications page:
    • The Notifications section controls the settings used to alert your team of the status of your scans.  Scan notifications are an optional feature.
      • Enter a desired email address and click the available box to enable notification emails.

 Notification Rules

  • For each type of issue select a Severity.  Options are:
    • Info
    • Low
    • Medium
    • High
    • Critical
  • For each type of issue select the desired frequency of notification.  Options are:
    • Every scan - Sends an email that meets the preceding criteria 
    • Scans with issues - Sends an email when a scan contains an issue of the indicated issue type and severity 
    • Scans with new issues - Sends an email when a scan detects a newly introduced issue of the indicated issue type and severity
    • Scans with compliance issues - Sends an email when a scan detects an item that is out of compliance based on the Compliance Configuration
    • Failed scans - Sends an email when a scan has failed based on the Scan Settings for the indicated issue type.

Note - Notification email fields do not accept lists - doing so will cause an error and notifications will not be sent.  To send notifications to multiple users, SOOS recommends the use of email distribution groups created within your company's email service.

  • Scan notification emails are grouped, meaning a single email is sent for each scan, and will include a composite of values for all issue types.  
  • Scan notification emails provide a link back to the project for users to investigate issues further.
