Overview

There are various options for getting notified when a new text message has been received; this article focuses on the three notification options generated from Sakari itself:

Only the logged-in User can choose notification options in Sakari, and their choices will only be relevant to their User profile (i.e. only they will receive the selected notifications).  Account Administrators cannot configure notifications on a User's behalf for security reasons.
