How to Create Email Notification Policies

You can use the User Console to create email notification policies that send emails when certain actions take place. For example, you can create an email notification policy that sends an email to notify approvers when a new user is created.

To create an email notification policy

1. Under the System tab, select Email, Create Email.
2. Select one of the following options:
   • Create a new object of type Managed Email

     Creates a new email notification policy.

   • Create a copy of an object of type Managed Email

     Uses an existing email notification policy as a template for creating a policy.

3. Provide basic information about the email notification policy in the Profile tab.
4. Specify when CA Identity Manager sends the email in the When to Send tab.

   The When to Send tab provides several options that allow you to specify the actions that trigger email notifications.

5. Specify the recipients of the email in the Recipients tab.
6. Define the subject and content of the email in the Content tab.

   You can specify dynamic content, such as the date, task or event name, and user attributes in the email content.
