Notifications overview
Mambu supports multiple ways to notify people or systems about important events:
- Email setup and SMS setup are used to communicate with people.
- Mambu does not track whether or when messages are viewed by end users.
- Webhooks and the Streaming API are used for system-to-system communication.
- If you already use third-party messaging platforms, you can integrate using webhooks or the Streaming API
- The Communication log in Mambu shows email, SMS, and webhook deliveries, including states, timestamps, and errors. Streaming is delivered via a separate pipeline and does not share the same resend/log flow.
Notifications can be generated automatically (from business events) or initiated manually (for example, resending a failed delivery where supported). Most production traffic is event-driven.
