Google-drive – Enable automatic notifications to multiple users in Google Docs

google-drivenotifications

If you are collaborating between multiple users, how do you enable Google Docs to send automatic notifications to all users when a document is added / modified or removed?

Best Answer

Apparently it is possible to set notifications in Google Spreadsheets, at least...

  1. Click Share at the top right of the spreadsheet and select Set Notification Rules.

  2. In the window that appears, select when and how often you want to receive notifications:

    • When changes are made to the entire spreadsheet
    • When changes are made to a specific sheet
    • When changes are made to specific cells
    • When collaborators are added or removed
    • When changes are made to forms
    • By 'daily digest' or 'right away'

  3. Click Save.

For other non-spreadsheet document types, subscribe to RSS feeds of all Google Doc documents.
