Who receives a notification for updates in the Drawings tool?
Answer
There are a couple scenarios when notification emails and push notifications are sent for drawing updates. In order for users who do not have 'Admin' permission to the Drawings tool to receive notifications, they must be on the Drawing Log Subscribers list. Any user with 'Read Only' or higher permission to the project's Drawings tool can subscribe to the drawings log and 'Admin' users can add any users on the project to the list.
Notifications for Uploaded Drawings
Notification emails are sent after the upload has completed processing to alert the user to review and confirm the drawings.
- Only the 'Admin' user who uploaded drawings will receive a notification email.
- All 'Admin' users to the Drawings tool will receive a notification email after drawings have been uploaded by a 'Read Only' or 'Standard' user with the 'Upload Drawings' granular permission enabled on their permission template.
Note: Drawings can be reviewed by users with 'Admin' permissions or 'Standard' permissions with the 'Upload and Review Drawings' granular permission enabled on their permission template. However, drawings can only be published by 'Admin' users.
Notifications for Published & Distributed Drawings
Notification emails and mobile push notifications are sent after drawings have been published and distributed to alert users that there are new drawings to view.
- Any user on the Drawing Log Subscribers list will receive notifications for drawings that have been published and distributed.
Note: The user publishing drawings must click "Publish & Distribute" for the notifications to be sent, as clicking "Publish" will not alert any users to the changes.- Subscribed users will immediately be sent a notification email and users with push notifications enabled on the Procore app will receive a push notification on the device.
