Re: [XNAT Discussion] Upload notification list in XNAT 1.8.10

[Charlie Moore]

Hi there Jenny,

I believe this was changed with this ticket https://radiologics.atlassian.net/browse/XNAT-7241. The intended replacement is indeed to use the Event Service, where the documentation is aimed at guiding you through more or less this scenario: https://wiki.xnat.org/documentation/configuring-an-email-action . Do note that configuring the event requires specifying a list of users to receive the email. Using the historical notification.lst is unfortunately not yet supported, although we have a ticket for it here https://radiologics.atlassian.net/browse/XNAT-7233 . If you could set it up to use the historical notification list per project, you'd presumably only need to set it up at the site-level, and it could use the previously configured lists. Unfortunately, without that, I expect you'll need a separate event per group of recipients. The upside of that is that if you have a group of 5 recipients who are all supposed to receive emails for 50 projects in the same bigger study, you can now have 1 event configured to run in those 50 projects, meaning you'll only need to maintain that list in the 1 event rather than 50 separate project-level lists. Another upside is that each of those different configured events can have custom body/subject, etc. which was not previously a supported option.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,

Charlie Moore

You don't often get email from gkgu...@gmail.com. Learn why this is important

Hey there! I have installed 1.8.10, and it looks like the AutoRun Configuration tab has been removed from the project page. We have many projects that use that to notify a list of emails when a session is uploaded. What's your recommendation to reimplement the feature for my users? Event Service?

Thanks,

Jenny

Thanks Charlie! I deleted my thread because I did figure out from a previous ticket that it can be reenabled by going to Administration, Pipeline Settings, Launch AutoRun. (Then I was unnecessarily embarrassed I didn't already know that, and so I deleted the ticket. :) )

It would be nice to have one list for multi-site projects, but the benefit of the AutoRun feature is that its very simple, so it's not a lot of trouble for someone to add each list. Plus a site user, who is Owner can administer the list themselves. I would never send a user in to try to edit an event.
