Trello is a web-based project management tool in this short video you will learn
about Trello notifications so now if I want to see all of my notifications I
will click on this bell icon and it will show me all of the recent notifications
so when you are managing a project in which the team members are scattered
sometimes if they are working from different countries so you want your
team members to be on the same page so that everybody knows how the project is
going and what they have to do next and Trello does this with a system of
notifications and the way this notification works is that whenever
anybody makes any change to a card which represents the tasks in a project
Tello sends email notifications to all the members of the card for example this
is a card if I click on this card as you can see that there are two members of
this card so it means that these two people are working on these tasks there
is a list of tasks here so whenever I make any change I am also a member so
this is me so whenever I make any change or the other person makes a change we
both get notification in our email so for example even if I put a comment so
let's say I put any comment hello and the way you put a comment is just save
the comment or you press ctrl enter and now your comment is saved this is the
comment and no the other person will get the notification it will say something
like my name and this person has put a comment for you or something like this
this is how notification works not only comment if for example I change the due
date of this card currently it is due on 4th of March so let's say I change to
5th of March and I save it again a notification will be sent to this person
so any change made to occurred really cause a notification to all the members
of the car so no let's say that someone is not a member of this card and you
want to send a notification to that person as well so for example I put a
comment and I want another person to get notified so in that case I have to put
at sign and then the name of the person's of
for example this is a person who is not the member of the card but member of the
boat so I entered his name and then I put the same comment and save it know
that person although not a member of the card but that person will get the
notification so this is when you make any change if I add a checklist if I
change a due date if I change a label to any color let's say even then that
person will get the notification who is the member of the card no the next thing
is let us say that I am NOT a member of a card but I want notification to be
sent to me for example I just remove myself from this car no I have no more
the member of this card but I still want a notification for some reason for
example if I am a project manager and I want to see the progress of the project
and I don't want myself to be a member of the card and the reason for this I
will explain in one of the later lectures when I will explain some
filtering I don't want myself to be a member of this card but I want to get
the notifications so in that case what I will do I will watch this card so if I
press this watch so now this tick mark means that I am watching this card and I
will be getting that notifications similarly you can also watch a whole
list so this list contains three tasks three cards so if I want to watch this
list I will click on these three dots and then watch and now I am watching
this list you can also watch the board as well so in order to wash the board
you have to first click this show menu and then here you have this option watch
and if you are not in here you are for example in this menu then you have to
click on this more and then you will get this watch option and if I click watch
now then I am not watching this board this is the way how note whole
notification works and how you can watch any board or a list or a card no these
notifications are sometimes very annoying in particular when you
newly joined Trello and you get notifications for each and every change
then it is very annoying sometimes and sometimes you don't know what to do so
you can change the frequency of these notifications by just going on the
right-hand side and you just click on this bell icon so here there is option
change notification email frequency if you click on that so there are three
options so if you are regularly following this board and your team
members are very actively working on the board and they don't want any
notification you can just click never and you will never get any notifications
but if you want notifications to be sent to you on a roughly an hourly basis then
you can select this periodically option and what this means is that whatever
changes you make it will not send email before one hour so this is what periodic
means and instantly is by default instantly is said so instantly means
that whenever there is a change notification will be sent to all members
so this is how you can change the frequency of the notifications so these
were some of the basic but important things about notifications
