​
Overview

Stay informed when new contacts join your audience through sign-up forms, API integrations, or other automated methods. Brew offers two notification options to keep your team updated on audience growth:

  1. Email Notifications: Individual notifications sent to your email address
  2. Slack Notifications: Team-wide notifications sent to a Slack channel

Notifications trigger for contacts added via forms, API, or integrations—not for manual CSV uploads.
