Email Templates

The subject and body of email notifications can be customized in HTML or plain text. To do this, you can refer to <DENODO_HOME>/conf/data-catalog/email.properties.

In the properties file, if you want to customize an email, you can specify the notification type and whether it is for the subject or content. The available notification types are: REQUEST_NEW, REQUEST_CANCELED, REQUEST_EDITED_DESCRIPTION, REQUEST_NEW_MESSAGE and REQUEST_EDITED_MESSAGE; followed by the suffix _SUBJECT (if it is for the subject) or _BODY (if it is for the body). For example: REQUEST_NEW_SUBJECT or REQUEST_EDITED_DESCRIPTION_BODY.
