Notification Task

The Notification Task allows you to send notification messages, and optionally capture and attach files.

The Notification Action and File Capture Action provide similar functionality. Those actions can only be run as Responses for a job or a step, but the Notification Task, because it is a task, can be the primary function that a job or step performs.

Generally, you would use a Notification or File Capture Action when you want to send a notification message in response to something that occurs during job execution. You would use Notification Task when the notification message is the purpose of the job or step.

Unlike the Notification Action and File Capture Action, the Notification Task can send messages to e-mail recipients who are not formally defined in adTempus as Notification Recipients.
