Questions about this workflow
How do I set up email forwarding to Notis?
Notis gives you a unique email address. You can create email rules in your email client to auto-forward critical senders (e.g., VIP customers, executives).
Will I get an SMS for every forwarded email, or can I filter?
You can ask Notis to only alert for emails from certain people or with specific keywords.
What if I accidentally forward something I didn't mean to?
You can ask Notis to let you confirm before sending SMS, or manually delete the webhook event if the integration supports it.
