Issue alert emails: updating the default

On July 27, 2026, Snyk updates the default setting for issue alert emails to ensure every notification you receive is relevant to your work. These emails alert you to newly detected vulnerabilities and license violations.

Summary of changes

If you have never manually configured your notification preferences, you stop receiving these emails after July 27, 2026. This update moves issue alert notifications to an opt-in model so they only reach you if they are useful to your workflow. If you have already chosen which emails you receive, your preferences do not change and remain preserved exactly as they are.

Manage your preferences

You can keep receiving these emails by saving your preferences before the July 27 deadline, or you can re-enable them at any time afterward. Wherever you can set issue alert notifications, a banner appears in the Snyk web UI. To opt in instantly, click Keep my current selections in the banner.

You can also manually manage your settings:

• For personal preferences: Navigate to Account Settings, click Notifications, find the issue alert emails for the relevant Organizations, and save your preference.

• For Organizations admins: Navigate to Organization Settings, click Notifications, and update the default for all members of your organization.

• For Groups admins: Navigate to Group, click Notifications, and manage issue alert settings across every organization in the Groups from a single page.
