====== Alarm Notifications ======

A user can set up alarm notifications (via Email or SMS) under their account for individual alarm data points, a group of points, or an entire project.

**Note on SMS Notifications:** SMS alarm notifications are automatically available and fully supported in the Mervis Cloud solution. For local (on-premise) installations, SMS functionality is also fully supported but requires additional local setup to activate.

If you do not see the option for user management in the menu, please refer to: [[en:mervis-scada:90-how-to:75-simple-user-management|Simple User Management]]

First, you need to enter the user's phone number (for SMS) and/or email address in the user management section.
