Using your Pega Account Profile to set up Alerts and Emails
Pega continuously works to improve client communication processes. As such, we have expanded the available tag sets to allow you to get notified whenever new content is posted to the Pega Support Center.
On your account profile, you can manage alerts and email notifications relevant to your field of expertise and requirements.
There are two ways to get notified:
- Specific ‘Instances’ of content you ‘Follow’ or ‘Subscribe’ to (Pega Support Center, Pega Forum, Pega Academy)
- Notifications based on ‘Tags’
This document will only describe the latter method of receiving notifications.
