How to test that invite or alert emails are sending

Verify RankWatch invite and alert emails are delivering through your org email channel (org owner).

Prerequisites

  • Organization owner (notification admin is owner-only)
  • A safe test recipient inbox you control

RankWatch organization notifications are email-only. Slack, webhook, and WhatsApp channels are not available — configure email delivery channels and templates instead. Use a controlled invite or alert event, then confirm the Sent log and inbox.

Steps

  1. Confirm an email delivery channel is configured and saved.
  2. Send a test invite to an inbox you control from the workspace team invite flow (use a role you can revoke).
  3. Alternatively, trigger a rank alert you own on a test keyword rule — still email-only delivery.
  4. Check the recipient inbox and spam. Also open Notifications → Sent log for status.
  5. If nothing arrives, re-check channel credentials, template placeholders, and whether the recipient disabled that category under Profile → Notifications.
  6. Revoke the test invite or delete the temporary alert rule when done.

Outcome

You have proof that invite/alert email leaves RankWatch successfully — or a concrete failure point in channel, template, or personal preference.
