Project and dataset updates and requests for access

For any data.world project or dataset that you are a contributor to, you will by default receive email notifications any time that project or dataset is updated (which can include when a new comment is left, a new Insight is created, or new files are added) or a request for access is submitted.

For a specific dataset or project, to add an additional email in addition to the dataset/project admin to receive these notifications:

  1. Go to the dataset or project of your choosing

  2. Click Settings

  3. Under the General tab, in the section labeled Additional notification recipient, specify an email address (like dataowner@yourcompany.com) to receive dataset notifications. Dataset/project admins will continue to receive emails. Specify only one additional email address.
