# Notifications

> Choose what reaches you by email and in the app, and route workspace events to Slack and Discord.

## Your notifications

Under **Settings → Notifications**, pick which events reach you by email. Everything is always shown in the app's
notifications too.

Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link for that kind of email.

## Slack

Connect Slack once to post to Slack channels and to receive workspace events there.

1. Go to **Settings → Slack** and choose **Connect Slack**. Approve the app in your Slack workspace.
2. Add a notification route: pick the Slack **Channel**, the **Events** to send (approvals requested and decided,
   posts published, publishing failures, channels needing reconnection), and optionally **Only for posts tagged** to
   narrow it to one tag.

Reviewers can approve or reject posts straight from Slack, and can be sent their review requests as direct messages.
Owners, admins and managers can connect Slack, set up routes and disconnect it.

## Discord

**Settings → Discord** works the same way: choose **Connect Discord**, add our bot to your server, then route events to
its channels.

## Per-post notifications

To announce a single post in a Slack or Discord channel when it goes live, use **Notify Slack** or **Notify Discord**
in the post's auto-engagement options. See [Auto-engagement](https://orbitwrite.com/docs/guides/grow/auto-engagement#notify-slack-or-discord).

## Webhooks

To send events to your own systems, see [Webhooks](https://orbitwrite.com/docs/developers/webhooks).
