Notification Channels

Under configurations you can find Notification Channels. Here you can create a notification channel, that you can later apply in different parts of the platform, most commonly in Geofences - for example to be notified when your vehicle is leaving and entering a specific geofence.

Types of notification channels

We currently support several types of notification channels. You can set up one or multiple channels at the same time. This way, you can stay informed in the way that suits you best! Here’s a quick overview:

Alert: creates an alert in the AutoPi Cloud. You can choose from different severity levels: low, medium, high, or critical.
Email: sends an email to the specified address. You can also add CC and BCC to include multiple recipients.
Discord: use a webhook ID and token to receive notifications directly in your Discord server.
SMS: add a phone number to receive notifications via text message.
