Hey guys, Could it be possible to add a feature to prevent the Fibery Ghost to send a notification when automation is triggered? Best option could be to define a 2 steps options at the rule level (e.g. for every automation rule/button): - do not sent notification to the user who triggered the rule (e.g. backport the current notification policy to the initial actioner) - do not send any notification We do have a use case where you do not directly manipulate Assignees for instance (but a custom field which is supporting more limitation - one to many relation for instance), and we do sometimes have ghost duplicated items (mostly for processing purpose) that are being updated in real time with user facing item. Cheers. /BC ---

For automations, where notification is an action, there is an option to choose whether the author of the change that triggered the notification should be notified: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/fibery/original/2X/2/257da3085166249f21cc4c7b46974cb5b04cb420.png) For the Assignee notifications, it is not currently possible to turn off notifications, irrespective of whether a colleague assigned you, or Fibery ghost assigned you. We’ll keep an eye on demand for this. ---

I am also interested in stopping receiving notifications from automations, in some cases. ---

I have an “entity” type “person” which I use to assign tasks to non-fibery users (mostly for tracking purposes and to remember what I need to discuss with whom). For fibery users I have an automation that, when I link the “entity” type “person”, then automatically also links the “user” to that task/project. I want to remove that type of notification because for me it’s useless and gets in the way of other - more useful - notifications.
