Password Expiration and Change Email Alerting

It would be extremely helpful if the Password Hub product had the ability to send email notifications in two scenarios:

1) When a vault entry reaches it's specified expiration date, notify the entry owner.

2) When a specific vault entry changes, such as password, notify all users who have access to the entry that it has changed.

Hello,

Thank you for your suggestions. Could you please answer the following questions?

  1. Who would be the owner of an entry? The creator? A specific user or group flagged as owner on the entry?
  2. Could you explain a little bit the reasoning behind this suggestion? What I'm trying to figure out is if this needs to be opt-in by users or if the administrator/vault owner should enforce it. For example, it could be a vault or entry setting. It could also be some sort of subscribe/unsubscribe option that users can turn on themself on entries of interrest.


On a side note, for suggestion #1, it's something very similar to this suggestion :
https://forum.devolutions.net/topics/38844/scheduled-reporting

As mentionned in that topic, we do plan on working on a reporting service which will be required to be installed on-prem or in your cloud. Our servers do not have access to your entry information other than the name. (For example, we can't check the expiration date of a certificate. It has to be done on the client side; hence why the service is required.)

Thank you, have a good day!

Hello,

Thank you for the detailed response.

1) Yes I would see the creator as the person to be notified.

2) To provide some context and an example, this would be a physical building's alarm code and we want to notify internal and external users that they can expect a change and/or that the entry has been modified.
The notifications being on an entry, not vault, level would be preferred as it's more granular.
Ideally, a user would be opted-in by default, and they would be able to opt-out if they wanted. The ability for an admin to enforce the alert would be preferable but as long as the default is opt-in, I believe it would fill our current requirement.

Hello,

Thank you for the precisions, I've added a new feature request in the backlog so that we can eventually look into it.

Have a good day!
