Complete the steps in the sections below to view your personal alerts or those set up by other users.

View my alerts

  1. On the top link bar, click Site Settings.
  2. Under Manage My Information, click My alerts on this site.

Note  If the site is a Meeting Workspace site, ignore step 1. Instead, from the Modify This Workspace menu on the home page, click Site Settings.

View other users' alerts

Note  You must have administrator rights to view other users' alerts.

  1. On the top link bar, click Site Settings.
  2. Under Administration, click Go to Site Administration.
  3. Under Management and Statistics, click Manage user alerts.
  4. In the Display alerts for menu, click the name of the site user whose alerts you want to view and then click Update.

Note  If the site is a Meeting Workspace site, ignore step 1. Instead, from the Modify This Workspace menu on the home page, click Site Settings.

Important  When you remove a user from a site after he or she has create alerts, you must manually delete any alerts that he or she has set up. This is also true for any lists or libraries where you change security settings to limit access. If a user has set up alerts for the list or library, he or she will continue to receive them after you change the security settings. It is important to delete these alerts to prevent unauthorized users from having access to site and user information.
