  1. Embedded Notifications

Overview

The Easyteam Embedded Notifications engine enables platforms to keep users updated with relevant, compliant real-time alerts about their workforce directly inside their platform or app.
Notifications can be sent through your own systems using webhooks, or directly via Push, Email, SMS (US/Canada only), or an embedded Inbox UI component.

These notifications adapt to your users' roles and permissions and can include actionable items, like approving time-off requests or reviewing schedule changes, all without leaving the platform.

What Can Be Notified#

Typical notifications include:
✅ Time-off requests — Sent to managers with options to approve/decline directly
🕒 Clock-in / Clock-out confirmations
