# Workflow notifications

Learn how to create notifications for the status of your workflow

Users can get notified (on a [notification channel](/administration/notifications.md#channels)) whenever a workflow has finished its execution. This way you can inform customers, departments, or project owners when their configured workflow has finished successfully or with a failed status.\
\
These are the steps to configure a Workflow notification:

{% hint style="info" %}
This tutorial teaches you how to create notifications for yourself, but you can also [create them for other users](/administration/notifications.md#creating-notifications-for-other-users) if you have admin rights.
{% endhint %}

\
\
1\. [Create a Workflow](/data-pipelines/workflows.md#creating-a-workflow) or choose an existing one.

2\. Click on your username at the top right corner of the screen, then select **My Notifications**.

3\. Fill in the details (**Name**, **Title** and **Description**) and make sure the **Trigger** is set to *Workflow Ended*:

4\. Select one or more Workflows.

5\. You can apply a trigger for a successfully finished workflow, a failed workflow, or both:

6\. In the **Filenames** section, it is possible to use [regular expressions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression) to select which files to export.

7\. You can opt for sending a file along with the notification only if the file was created/modified after the start time of that workflow. To achieve this, tick the **Enabled** box next to **Since workflow start time**.

8\. It is possible to compress the files by ticking the **Enabled** box next to **Compress** **Attachments**.

9\. Finally, click the **Create** button.
