I can’t find a setting that will allow me to set notifications for the Accountable Team in a goal. This means that the 30 people on my team are getting a notification every time a team member creates a new goal or updates its status. We are setting our Team as the Accountable Team so that everyone’s goals are visible in the Team Goals tab. I tried following this guidance from the Asana Community Forum but don’t see a place to set notifications for the Accountable Team. I can see how to set notifications for Members.
We want to:
-
stop our team from receiving updates every time a team member creates or updates a new goal
-
we would like to be able to direct status updates to a certain person or set of people on the team
-
we would like everyone’s goals to be visible in the Team Goals section (or somewhere if that’s not the right place)
Hi @Lauren_Donovan ,
To adjust notification settings for an existing goal, click on Share button in the top right corner, and then select the Manage notifications to pre-set the notifications for status updates and comments.
When setting up a new goal and sharing it with a user or a team, you will have to un-check the notification box appearing in that window to prevent sending out a notification to the added users.
I hope this helps!
Honestly, this was something my team was struggling with too. Once we adjusted the notification settings for the accountable teams in Goals, it made a big difference. Before that, people were either getting too many notifications or missing important updates.
I think it really helps to clearly define who’s accountable and then fine-tune notifications so only the right people get updates. It keeps everyone aligned without overwhelming the team.
Curious to know how others are managing this — are you keeping default settings or customizing them for each goal?
