You can create alerts for yourself, or for other people, that send an e-mail when events that you specify occur. You receive alerts in e-mail and can obtain additional information about the alert by clicking links in the alert.

Required Permissions

To perform these procedures, you must be a member of the Readers group or have the View project-level information permission set to Allow. For more information, see Team Foundation Server Permissions.
