Introduction
Laravel Forge sends notifications for server and site events, including completed server provisioning, failed deployments, and monitor alerts.
- Personal notification preferences. These apply to your own account and control which notifications Laravel Forge sends you, and whether they arrive by email, in the notification center, or both.
- Resource notification channels. These are configured for individual sites, monitors, and backup configurations and are sent to their configured recipients.
This page covers personal notification preferences. To configure resource notifications, see deployment notifications, backup notifications, and server monitoring.
Notification channels
Laravel Forge delivers personal notifications on two channels:
You can enable or disable email and in-app notifications independently. When a channel is disabled, its individual notification preferences are hidden.
Preferences are per user. Changing yours does not affect what your organization’s other members receive.
Managing your preferences
To manage your notification preferences, click your avatar in the top right corner of the dashboard, click “Account”, then click “Notifications” in the sidebar. Use the “Enable email notifications” and “Enable in-app notifications” switches to control each channel as a whole, then check or uncheck individual notifications in the “Email” and “In-app” columns. Once done, click “Save”.
A checkbox is disabled when the notification cannot be delivered on that channel. Hovering over it explains why.
Available notifications
The tables below list every notification covered by personal preferences, along with its default state on each channel.
Server notifications
Site notifications
Muting servers
Mute a server to stop personal notifications for it and its sites without changing your preferences for other servers.
To mute a server, open the notifications page, click the “Muted servers” dropdown, and check each server you want to silence. Servers are grouped by organization, and the search field filters the list. Click “Save” to apply your changes.
Muting does not affect notifications configured in a site’s own settings. If your email address appears on a site’s failure notification recipient list, you will continue to receive those emails for a muted server, because that list delivers to raw addresses rather than to Laravel Forge accounts. Remove your address from the site’s recipients to stop them.
