Sharing an alert record
A user can share the alert they have created with another user. This creates a copy of their alert record which is then assigned to the recipient user whom, having accepted the alert, takes full control of the alert record.
Who can share an alert
Professional users who are assigned the ‘Share alerts’ user privilege will have access to the share alert functionality. Any Professional or Analyzer user will be able to receive a shared alert.
