GRAX sends email notifications to keep you and your team aware of changes and insights about your data. These consist of:

• Data activities around search, archive, restore, and seeding
• User management around password changes
• Problems around Salesforce OAuth connection
• Periodic summaries around Auto Backup, Archive and Data Lake usage

App Notifications

GRAX sends real-time notifications for important events that happen in the app.

App Admins

The app requires one or more valid admin emails to contact about critical problems like OAuth connection issues. To set these go to the settings and update "GRAX Admin Email Address" with a list of admins.
