How Email Notifications Work
Email notifications in Actimo inform employees about new content available for them on the app. These emails include a summary of the content along with a direct link for employees to access it.
What Employees Receive
✔️ A notification about new content available in Actimo
✔️ A direct link to the app for easy access
✔️ A consistent experience across email, push, and SMS notifications
Benefits of Email Notifications
1. Consistency Across Notification Channels
Email notifications function in the same way as push and SMS notifications, directing employees to the app for a seamless experience.
2. Accurate Analytics
By directing employees to view the content on the app, Actimo ensures more precise data on who has accessed and interacted with the content.
3. Boosting Engagement with the App
Email notifications encourage employees to visit the app, helping them stay informed and engaged with published communications.
Setting Up Email Notifications in Actimo
If you'd like to use email notifications to share content with your employees, here's how to set it up:
Go to the Publish section of your message
Under 'Notifications', select via email
-
Add the subject and the email title
By default, the email title is set to 'New content available for you'
Choose Email Preview type.
Public Access to Email Notifications
If you want to make the email notification accessible to everyone (including employees who are not logged in), you can do so by enabling the Public link on the message:
When the public link is enabled, the View now button in the email will be public.
This means any employee receiving the notification will be able to open the message directly, even if they are not logged in to Actimo.
❗Views from employees who are not logged in will not be counted in the Analytics section of the message.
Customise the Email Preview
You can also choose what your employees will see as a preview in the email notification. To do this:
Go to the Publish section of the message
Scroll down to find 'Content preview'
Edit this section to include any text or image you'd like shown as a preview in the email
This is a great way to give employees a short introduction or teaser before they open the content in the app.
