# Configuring Equipment Triggered Notifications

Equipment Integration is designed to be able to trigger a set of behaviors when an Error or Alarm occurs one of which is triggering Notifications.

## How it works

The configuration is done by configuring the Smart Table **SemiResourceActionNotifications**.

Notifications are triggered based on the context defined on the Smart Table columns:

- **Resource**:
    - Resource that triggered the Notification.
- **NotificationTrigger**:
    - Notification that has been triggered.

For Notifications of this type, currently, only these 2 context keys are valid.

Multiple lines for the same context can be defined, allowing for different Roles on Distribution lists to be notified.
If no line matches the context no Nofication or email will be triggered.

Behavior is defined by filling the following values:

- **NotificationAction**:
    - Valid actions are **Notification** or **Email**
        - **Notification** triggers an **MES based notification** to the **Role** defined on **Target Role**.
        - **Email** sends an email to either the **Role's** distribution list or to the **Target Distribution List**.
- **Severity**:
    - Used to define the Severity of the MES Notification
    - This will define the behavior of the Notification (popup, time to close, color, etc.).
- **TargetRole**:
    - Used to define the Target Role for the Notification or Email
- **TargetDistributionList**.
    - Used to define the Distribution List for the Email
- **NotificationTitleMessage**.
    - Localized Message to be used as part of **Notificaton Title** or **Email Subject**.
- **NotificationBodyMessage**
    - **Localized Message** to be used as part of the Notification Details or **Email Content**.
- **IsEnable**:
    - **Enables** or **Disables** the defined behavior for the line. If set to False it will not be executed.

### Notes and Requirements

!!! note
    * Only **Users** with associated **Employee** will receive **MES Notifications**.

    * In order to use a **Role** to send an **Email** the **Distribution List** property of the Role must be filled.
