Email from GitLab

DETAILS: Tier: Premium, Ultimate Offering: Self-managed

Administrators can email all users, or users of a chosen group or project. Users receive the email at their primary email address.

You might use this functionality to notify your users:

• About a new project, a new feature, or a new product launch.
• About a new deployment, or that downtime is expected.

For information about email notifications originating from GitLab, read GitLab notification emails.

Unsubscribing from emails
