What are notifications?

TryPost sends notifications to keep you informed about important events — successful publishes, failures, account issues, and team activity. Notifications are delivered in real time so you can react quickly.

Notification types

Publishing

AI

Accounts

Team

Notification channels

In-app notifications are always created. Email is sent in addition to in-app for most types, with a couple of carve-outs:
  • mentioned_in_comment — if you’re online, only the in-app toast fires; if you’re offline, you get both.
  • post_ready — in-app only. The AI Create flow is short enough that a banner inside the app is all you need.

Notification preferences

Go to Settings > Notifications to toggle which notifications you receive. Each toggle controls email for that notification type — in-app notifications are always created so you can catch up later from the bell. Today the page exposes three toggles: mentioned_in_comment, invite_received, member_joined, member_removed, and post_ready use sensible defaults today and aren’t user-configurable yet.
Keep Post failed and Account disconnected emails on. They need immediate action and you might not be looking at the dashboard when they fire.

Managing notifications

The notification center (bell icon) shows all your in-app notifications:
  • Mark as read — Click a notification to mark it as read
  • Mark all as read — Clear all unread notifications at once
  • Archive all — Archive all notifications to start fresh

Email configuration

Email notifications require a working mail configuration. TryPost uses SendKit as the default mailer with a free plan of 3,000 emails/month — more than enough for notification emails.
Self-hosting? See the Configuration guide to set up email delivery.

FAQ

The workspace owner receives all publishing notifications (success and failure), regardless of who created or scheduled the post.
Yes. Go to Settings > Notifications and disable each notification type. In-app notifications will still appear in the notification center, but emails will stop.
In-app notifications are delivered in real-time via WebSockets. You’ll see them appear instantly without refreshing the page. Emails are sent asynchronously via the queue worker.
