Configure email settings

Use Email settings to set the email server configuration required to support sending email notifications. You can define alerts by a dashboard user. An email is sent to the dashboard user when the specified conditions are met.

You can configure an SMTP server to send emails because Insight has no predefined mail server.

  1. In Admin Console, on the Documents Tree, select Options.

    The Options editor appears.

  2. In the Email settings section, select options such as Enable SSL, Use authentication, and Send email at alert.

    Note Select Use authentication if your email server requires authentication for connecting and sending emails.

  3. Complete the data fields with the information for the email server you want Insight to use to send emails.
  4. Fill in the User and Password information used for authentication.
  5. Enter the email address for Administrator email.

    In the Insight dashboard tool, alerts can be sent to different people via email. The alerts will be sent from the defined Administrator email.

  6. Enter the URL for Viewer URL.
  7. Click Send test to ensure your settings are correct before saving your email settings.
