The space notification feature is not suitable for all types of spaces. If it is enabled for all members of a space, regardless of their role, there is a risk of generating an excessive number of emails, especially when a space receives numerous contributions.
However, it can be beneficial in the following scenarios:
When changing users from just readers to contributors in a space, this feature allows coordinators and administrators to receive real-time notifications about new publications. This facilitates quick access to the content and enables them to verify its quality (metadata, tags, relevance of the content itself).
At the start of a project, it helps equip administrators and coordinators with information about new content, fostering communication with contributors and encouraging their engagement.
In a space dedicated to support, it enables prompt responses to inquiries.
Conversely, if used in spaces with a large number of users and shared content, it risks causing significant inconvenience and negative feelings towards the platform.
