IBM Aspera Console allows you to create and
modify email notification templates based on three transfer events: transfer start,
transfer success, and transfer error. You can customize emails based on recipient needs
by creating a new template. For example, an error notification email to an internal
admin typically contains as much information as possible, while a notice to an outside
party might contain a bare minimum of information. You can edit the included default
templates, create and edit new templates, and change which templates are used as
defaults.
