Turning Off Bulk Email Notifications

Overview

This article describes how to configure Netwrix Change Tracker to send each change as a separate email instead of compiling multiple changes into one. By default, Change Tracker groups all changes detected during a single tracking cycle into one bulk email rather than sending a separate email per change. Turning off bulk notifications increases email volume, since Change Tracker sends one email per detected change instead of one email per tracking cycle. Consider your notification infrastructure's capacity before disabling this setting. Disable it only if you need per-change alerting, such as for a compliance workflow.

Instructions

  1. Open an administrative Command Prompt and stop IIS:

    iisreset /stop
  2. Navigate to C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Change Tracker Generation 7 (NetCore) Hub\Configs.

  3. Open the appsettings.json file and edit the following lines within the file:

    ,
    "roleSettings" : {
    "enableBulkNotifications" : "no"
    }

    NOTE: If you split off your MongoDB database to a different server, edit the existing appsettings.json file directly using these steps rather than replacing it.

  4. Save the file.

  5. Start IIS:

    iisreset /start

After IIS restarts, Netwrix Change Tracker sends each change as its own email instead of compiling multiple changes into one.
