|
|
||
|
As a GitLab administrator you can email GitLab users from within GitLab.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Overview
|
||
|
|
||
|
GitLab provides a simple tool to email all users or users of a chosen group or
|
||
|
project right from the admin area. Users will receive the email to their primary
|
||
|
email address.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Use-cases
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Notify your users about a new project, a new feature, or a new product launch.
|
||
|
- Notify your users about a new deployment, or that will be downtime expected
|
||
|
for a particular reason.
|
||
|
|
||
|

## Unsubscribing from emails
|
||
|
|
||
|
User can choose to unsubscribe from receiving emails from GitLab by following
|
||
|
the unsubscribe link from the email. Unsubscribing is unauthenticated in order
|
||
|
to keep the simplicity of this feature.
|
||
|
|
||
|
On unsubscribe, user will receive an email notifying that unsubscribe happened.
|
||
|
The endpoint that provides the unsubscribe option is rate-limited.
