# Forum notifications

Spot members receive selected forum-related notifications:

* **Email Digest:** in the email digest, they will find all the new topics of the forums to which they have access. 
* **Email:** when a new message is posted in a forum to which they have access, they will receive an email within 15 minutes if they have not seen the message in question. 
* **In-app:** when a new message is posted in a forum to which they have access, they will receive an in-app notification.

Admins receive the same notifications as members. They also receive : 

* **Email:** when a new topic is created on the Spot, they'll receive an email within 15 minutes if they haven't seen the message.
* **In-app:** when a new topic is created on the Spot, they'll receive an in-app notification.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.meltingspot.io/english/spot-content/discussions/forum-notifications.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
