How to Create Alerts for Macro Addition, Deletion and Updation

Updated 

The Alert Manager now includes a new Macro alert type, giving you real-time visibility into important Macro-level changes. These alerts help improve governance, security, and transparency across your workspace.

Macro Events That Trigger Alerts

Macro alerts are triggered when a Macro is:

  • Created

  • Updated (including activation, deactivation, or other changes)

  • Deleted

Update events include channel-agnostic changes such as modifications to:

  • Macro details (name, owner, user ID, time zone, custom fields)

  • Secure access configurations, credentials, and access settings (roles, usernames, passwords, users, user groups, end dates)

  • Permissions, subscribers, Macro groups, and web analytics

Note: Channel-specific Macro actions will be supported in a future release.

Available Filters

You can filter Macro alerts by:

  • Macro Created By / Macro Edited By

  • Macro Asset Class (User, Case, Message, etc.)

  • Macro Group

  • Workspace

  • Macro Type

  • Channel

  • Macro Owner

  • Types of Actions (Automated or Manual)

These filters ensure alerts are targeted to the right recipients.

What’s Included in Alert Emails

Emails must include:

  • Event type (MACRO_CREATED / MACRO_UPDATED / MACRO_DELETED / MACRO_APPLIED)

  • Request ID (for audit correlation)

  • UTC Timestamp

  • Macro Name & ID

  • Actor (user/system who performed the action)

  • Target entity (for Macro Application — e.g., Case ID, Account ID, or Conversation ID)

For updates, include only changed fields (old → new).

Each email must have a logged audit record with outcome.
