Notifications

ScreenshotOne can notify your team when your monthly usage approaches or reaches the configured usage limit.

Email

By default, email notifications are sent when usage reaches 50%, 90%, and 100% of the monthly usage limit. You can manage these notifications in the dashboard:

Email notifications

You can add up to 3 notification recipients. The organization owner is included by default, and organization admins can add dedicated recipients such as:

  • engineering@example.com
  • alerts@example.com
  • support@example.com

Custom recipients must confirm their email address before they receive usage alerts. Existing verified organization users can be added as active recipients without extra confirmation.

Only active recipients receive usage alerts. Pending recipients will not receive notifications until they confirm their email address.

Slack

You can also enable Slack notifications in the dashboard, in addition to email notifications.

To enable Slack notifications, you need to specify a Slack webhook URL in the dashboard:
