How to turn on e-mail notifications

Daily Standups for Jira can send you a reminder in Slack, but it can also be delivered into your regular e-mail address, if you prefer it that way.

Daily Standups for Jira – email reminder

If you prefer not to read too much text, here’s a shortened summary of this tutorial:

  1. Set up the standup time (e.g. 9:30, 4:30pm, 5pm…etc)
  2. Add e-mail address for the participants of the particular daily standup
  3. Turn on “Email notifications” option

(… all of the aforementioned steps are able to be set in standup settings)

Tutorial

1. Configure standup time

The first setting to configure is the time of your standup. Based on this time the reminders will be sent out (15 minutes before this time).

2. Add an e-mail address for participants

Next step is to add email addresses of participants who are going to receive an email reminder there. The addresses must be added in the “Participants” tab.
