Configure Talend Data Catalog to send notifications to alert users when
certain events occur to the objects they are responsible for.
Notification types
There are different types of notifications:
- Notification when a harvesting server goes down.
- Notification for object changes when there are changes in a model or configuration, workflow transitions, or build errors on a configuration.
Talend Data Catalog sends a notification when the following events
occur:
