Choose the email updates that help you prepare for meetings and follow Workspace changes without receiving the same information from every channel.
In Parallel has two notification levels:
Personal notifications cover your talking points, Daily Digest, and post-meeting Notes.
Workspace notifications cover a Workspace's scheduled briefings and recaps.
Open your personal notifications
Open your user menu and select Settings.
Choose Personal.
Open Notifications.
Set your timezone under General before choosing delivery times. Notification schedules use your configured local time.
Choose personal email updates
Pre-meeting talking points
Turn talking-point generation on or off and choose how long before a meeting it should run. Select email when it is one of the delivery channels offered for your account.
Use this when you want a short preparation prompt before relevant meetings. Turn it off or increase the lead time if it arrives too often or too late to be useful.
Personal Daily Digest
Turn the Daily Digest on or off and choose its delivery time. The personal Daily Digest can summarize context across the Workspaces you can access.
This is separate from each Workspace's briefing and recap schedules. Turning off the Daily Digest does not turn off Workspace emails.
Post-meeting Notes
Configure Notes separately for:
Meetings you organize — choose the recipients, delivery method, and default report length.
Meetings you participate in — choose whether Notes are delivered to you and by which method.
Review recipient settings before enabling automatic delivery. Meeting Notes can include information that should stay within the meeting or its connected Workspace.
A post-meeting email can include published Workspace changes, a meeting summary, linked source items, and owners.
Choose Workspace briefing and recap emails
You need Owner access to change a Workspace's notification settings.
Open your user menu and select Settings.
Choose the Workspace.
Open Notifications.
Configure the Briefing and Recap cards separately.
For each card, choose the daily or weekly schedule, then review:
Delivery to you for your personal copy; and
Delivery to workspace for a copy shared with Workspace members.
Select email when it is available as the intended delivery method. A schedule can be active without email delivery, so check both the schedule and delivery settings when an expected message does not arrive.
Briefings are forward-looking: what needs attention next. Recaps are backward-looking: what changed. You can enable one without enabling the other.
The delivered message uses the name of the output. A briefing email is labeled briefing. A recap may appear as your daily or weekly close in the email subject and heading.
Reduce duplicate notifications
Keep the personal Daily Digest if you want one cross-Workspace summary.
Keep Workspace briefings or recaps for Workspaces where you need a scheduled team-level view.
Turn off duplicate channel delivery when the same update already reaches you through email, Slack, or Microsoft Teams.
Check both daily and weekly schedules on the briefing and recap cards.
Review organizer and participant settings separately for post-meeting Notes.
If an email does not arrive
Confirm the relevant personal or Workspace schedule is on.
Confirm email is selected as a delivery method.
Check that your profile email and timezone are correct.
For Workspace updates, confirm you still have access to the Workspace and that the expected audience is selected.
For meeting Notes, confirm the Recorder joined and processing completed.
Check your organization's mail filtering before enabling a second delivery channel.
If the settings are correct and messages still do not arrive, contact the In Parallel support team with the notification type, expected delivery time and timezone, and Workspace or meeting name. Do not include transcript text or other sensitive meeting content in the first message.
