Your Notifications settings decide which events Default tells you about and how those notifications reach you. The page has one tab per channel, and each tab lists the notification types you can turn on for that channel.
Open Settings from the Dock, the app bar at the bottom of the screen. Select My Notifications under My Profile.The page opens on the In-App tab by default.

How channel controls work

Each channel tab has a channel-level toggle at the top.
  • Turn the channel on to receive notifications through it.
  • Turn the channel off to silence the entire channel, no matter what your per-type settings say.
Below the channel toggle, each notification group lists its types as individual toggles. Turn each type on or off on its own. Per-type toggles are active only when the channel itself is on. If you turn a channel off, the type-level toggles dim but keep their settings. Turn the channel back on to restore your previous choices.

Channel tabs

In-App

Delivers notifications inside Default, like a badge or feed item when a meeting is booked. The channel needs no extra setup and is available to everyone.

Slack

Sends notifications as Slack messages. This channel needs a connected workspace Slack integration. If Slack is not connected, the tab shows a message that directs you to connect Slack under Integrations. Once Slack is connected at the workspace level, turn on the channel. Then choose which notification types you want delivered there.

Mail

Sends notifications by email to the address on your profile. If your profile has no valid email address, the channel toggle stays disabled. The tab prompts you to add an email to your profile.

SMS

Sends notifications by text message to the phone number on your profile. To enable SMS:
1

Add your phone number

Add a valid E.164 phone number on Profile, for example +15551234567.
2

Open the SMS tab

Open the SMS tab on Notifications.
3

Turn on the channel toggle

Turn on the SMS notifications channel toggle.
When the SMS toggle is on, you explicitly opt in to scheduling-related SMS notifications for your user account. The UI also shows a privacy policy link at the point of opt-in.
The user Notifications page showing the SMS tab and notification types

User Notifications page with SMS channel available.

SMS message recipients can opt out by replying STOP. Default also includes compliance follow-up text to explain why a recipient received a scheduling SMS.

Notification types

Each channel tab shows the same set of notification types, grouped by area. Turn each type on or off within the channel you’re configuring.

Meeting

Admins configure the Workflows and Forms error-log notifications on Workspace notifications. Those groups do not appear on this page.

Routing

General

Workspace precedence

Your notification settings work within limits that your workspace admin sets. Three layers apply, in order:
  1. Workspace channels. Your admin turns each channel on or off for the whole workspace and sets the connection status for Slack. If the workspace disables a channel, you cannot enable it for yourself.
  2. Workspace defaults. Your admin sets a default on or off state for each notification type on each channel. These are the starting values every user inherits.
  3. Your preferences. You can turn any type off, or back on if the workspace default is off. You can always opt out of anything, but you cannot opt into a channel or type that the workspace blocks.
In short, the workspace sets the ceiling, and you narrow things within it.
