Introduction

There's only one notification template related to course catalogs—the Guest Invitation notification template.

 

Guest_notification

 

LMS365 enables you to add guests (external users) via the Users page, therefore giving them access to the whole catalog.

This article describes the Guest Invitation notification template, what triggers this notification, how it's delivered, and the default notification template settings.

 

NOTE   

  • Invitation of guests (external users) requires prerequisites.
  • Internal users won't receive a Guest Invitation notification when they are added to a catalog.
