Creating Subscription Groups

Subscription Groups are logical entities that you can use as the destinations for alerts and notifications that you enable in the Cato Management Application. This article discusses how to create Subscription Groups that contain members for Mailing Lists and integrations (such as Webhooks or ServiceNow).

Overview

Subscription Groups can be re-used in different alerts and notifications based on the requirements of your organization. After you define Mailing Lists and Webhooks, you can add them as members to a Subscription Group. When you edit the members of a Subscription Group, the relevant alerts are automatically updated to send the alerts to the members in the Subscription Group.

Creating Subscription Groups

Use the Subscription Groups tab in the Subscription page to create new Subscription Groups and manage them.
