Send Notification ## Overview The Send Notification node sends alerts directly to your Langdock inbox. Create custom messages to notify yourself about workflow events, completion status, important data, or when something needs attention. **Best for**: Workflow completion alerts, error notifications, status updates, data summaries, and custom alerts requiring attention. ## Recipients Notifications are delivered to: * **Manual/Form triggered workflows**: The user who triggered the workflow * **Scheduled/Webhook/Integration triggered workflows**: The workflow owner (creator) Currently, notifications can only be sent to the Langdock inbox of the user associated with the workflow run. To notify external recipients or specific team members, use the [Action node](/en/using-langdock/workflows/nodes/action-node) with Slack, Email, or other messaging integrations. ## Configuration ### Message The notification content to send. Supports three input modes: **Manual mode**: Enter the message directly with variables and markdown formatting **Auto mode**: AI automatically generates the message based on workflow context **Prompt AI mode**: Provide instructions for the AI to generate the notification ```text theme={null} Write a brief notification summarizing the workflow results for {{trigger.output.task_name}} ``` You can include any data from previous nodes using variables to create rich, contextual notifications. ## Example Notifications ### High Priority Alert ```handlebars theme={null} 🚨 **High Priority Customer Feedback** A high-priority support request was received: **Customer:** {{trigger.output.customer_name}} **Email:** {{trigger.output.email}} **Category:** {{agent.output.structured.category}} **Sentiment:** {{agent.output.structured.sentiment}} **Summary:** {{agent.output.structured.summary}} **Action Required:** Please respond within 1 hour. ``` ### Processing Complete ```handlebars theme={null} ✨ **Batch Processing Complete** Successfully processed **Success:** {{code.output.success_count}} **Errors:** {{code.output.error_count}} **Duration:** {{code.output.duration_minutes}} minutes Check the logs for details. ``` ## Markdown Formatting Make your notifications easier to read with markdown: ```handlebars theme={null} # Important Alert **Bold text** for emphasis *Italic text* for notes - Bullet point 1 - Bullet point 2 - Bullet point 3 [Link to dashboard](https://app.example.com/dashboard) ``` ## Best Practices Include essential information but don't overwhelm. Use bullet points for multiple items. Include relevant IDs, names, or links so you can quickly take action. Structure your message with headers and sections for easy scanning. Tell yourself what to do next: "Review the dashboard", "Respond to customer", etc. Run test workflows to see how notifications appear in your inbox. ## Next Steps Learn how to use variables in notifications Send messages via integrations Generate notification content with AI Understand workflow fundamentals
