Email notifications

The switch is Email me each capture, in the After the capture section of the Web Profile form. Each email contains:

• A thumbnail preview, so you can see at a glance whether the page rendered.
• The page, when it was captured and the profile it used.
• A button that opens that capture in the app. The full-size file is never attached.

The email goes to the person who created the schedule, at their confirmed email address. On Business and Business Plus, once your workspace has a confirmed notification address, it goes there instead. See Notifications.

• With change detection on, a capture that changed can send a “page changed” email in place of this one.
• The pages of a sitemap schedule are never emailed one by one.

This is the part worth pausing on. Notifications are per capture, not per day and not per schedule, and they are set on the profile — so they apply to every schedule pointing at it.

• While you are setting a schedule up. The first few captures are when things go wrong — a blank page, a login wall, a cookie banner in the frame. Turn it on, confirm the captures look right, turn it off.
• For genuinely low-frequency, high-importance pages. A weekly compliance capture is worth an email; a ten-minute uptime capture is not. To hear only when a page actually changes, use Email me when the page changes instead.
• When somebody other than you needs to see the result. A preview in an inbox is easier for a colleague than an account they have to log into.
