Send Notification

Send in-app notifications to your Odeus inbox.

Overview

The Send Notification node sends alerts directly to your Odeus inbox. Create custom messages to notify yourself about workflow events, completion status, important data, or when something needs attention.

Best for: Workflow completion alerts, error notifications, status updates, data summaries, and custom alerts requiring attention.

Recipients

Notifications are delivered to:

• Manual/Form triggered workflows: The user who triggered the workflow
• Scheduled/Webhook/Integration triggered workflows: The workflow owner (creator)

Currently, notifications can only be sent to the Odeus inbox of the user associated with the workflow run. To notify external recipients or specific team members, use the Action node with Slack, Email, or other messaging integrations.

Configuration

Message

The notification content to send. Supports three input modes:

Manual mode: Enter the message directly with variables and markdown formatting

Auto mode: AI automatically generates the message based on workflow context

Prompt AI mode: Provide instructions for the AI to generate the notification

Write a brief notification summarizing the workflow results for {{trigger.output.task_name}}

You can include any data from previous nodes using variables to create rich, contextual notifications.

Markdown Formatting

Make your notifications easier to read with markdown:

# Important Alert **Bold text** for emphasis *Italic text* for notes - Bullet
point 1 - Bullet point 2 - Bullet point 3 [Link to
dashboard](https://app.example.com/dashboard)

Best Practices

Include essential information but don't overwhelm. Use bullet points for multiple items.



Include relevant IDs, names, or links so you can quickly take action.



Structure your message with headers and sections for easy scanning.



Tell yourself what to do next: "Review the dashboard", "Respond to customer",
etc.



Run test workflows to see how notifications appear in your inbox.
