Administrator - Guide on Campaigns Notifications
When you run a campaign in Q7Leader, the platform automatically sends the right emails to managers, team members, and admins at the right time. This article explains who receives each email, when, and why.
A campaign is a structured program that guides your team through a series of phases, such as launching the campaign, completing self-assessments, holding conversations, and generating a final report.
Each phase has a scheduled start date. When that date arrives, Q7Leader automatically sends the relevant notification emails to the appropriate participants.
Not every campaign includes every phase.
TeamScan, SelfScan, and Conversations are optional, depending on how the campaign is configured, so you may not see every email described below.
In this article, you will find more information about:
- Campaign notification overview
- Campaign launched notifications
- TeamScan requests (for managers)
- SelfScan requests (for team members)
- Conversation summaries (for managers)
- Campaign completion notifications
- Campaign reports

Good to know
Emails are triggered by phase start dates, not by manual actions. As long as a phase is enabled in your campaign configuration, the corresponding notification is sent automatically when its start date is reached.
If a campaign does not include a specific phase (for example, no Conversations are configured), the related emails will not be sent. There is nothing extra to disable.
If someone on your team reports not receiving an expected email, first check that:
- The relevant phase is enabled in the campaign configuration.
- The campaign Start Date has passed.
- The participant has an active user account in the platform.
Notifications are only sent to participants with an active user account.
