What Notifications Do All Users Receive By Default?
Last updated: November 13, 2026
New users receive whichever email notifications are turned on for your organization on the Default Notifications tab. The list depends on which Ambition features your organization uses, so it can look different from one company to another.
Required permissions:
No special permission is required to receive default notifications.
The Organization: Edit permission is required to view or change your organization's default notifications.
To see the current list, go to Admin --> Organization --> Default Notifications. Notifications are grouped by feature, and each one with its toggle turned on will be sent to new users by default.
Some notifications carry a Managers only, Employees only, or Admins only label. Those are only sent to people in that role, even when the toggle is turned on.
Each user can still change their own notification settings after their account is created.
