Notifications and guest links

Notifications

By default, the Platform will not notify you when your model run finishes. To receive notifications for a model run, click the down arrow next to “Run” on the model run page. Select “Run & Notify”.

The run button with the drop-down open. Visible options are "Run", "Run & Notify", and "Schedule"

Ensure that “Notify me when finished” is enabled, and then click the main “Run & Notify” button. Your model will run, and an email will be sent when it finishes (or fails).

The notification options.

If you want to notify other people when your model run finishes, you can enable “Send out guest links when complete”. Enter their email addresses in the recipients box, and they’ll be sent a guest link to the results when the model finishes.

Note

In order to send out guest links, you’ll need to assign a name to your model run.

Custom notifications

You can customize the subject line of guest link emails by having your model output a plain-text file called platform-notification-subject.txt with your desired subject.

You can also customize the email body. Your model should output a file called platform-notification-body.txt. If you add the text ${url} into your custom email body, the Platform will replace it with the generated guest link.

You can also add:

Code

Substitution

${named}

The name of the particular model run

${model-name}

The name of the model

${sender}

The schedule creator’s name

${email-name}

The part of the recipient’s email address before the “@”

Note

If you don’t add ${url} somewhere in your custom email body, the email will not contain a guest link

Guest links

Guest links allow you to share results from a model run without giving access to the entire project. They can even be accessed by people who don’t have an account on the Platform.

Creating a link

As mentioned above, the RiskScape Platform can send out guest links automatically. You can also manually generate a guest link for a previous model run.

On the results page, click the link-icon icon on the right hand side, then click “Generate Link”. You can then copy the displayed link and share it with others (e.g. by email).

Note

Model runs must be named to be shared. If you don’t see the link-icon icon button, make sure that you’ve given your model run a name.

Warning

Take care when sharing links - anyone with the link will be able to access the results. This means that the guest link recipients could pass the link onto other people with whom you might not have intended to share the results.
