How do I get Google Sheets to notify other users?
Manage your notifications
You can change how often you receive email notifications for comments in Google Sheets. In Google Sheets, you can also change notification settings for edits. You can choose whether to receive notifications through email or on your browser.
Important: Changes to notification settings will only apply to the file you’re on.
In Google Sheets
You can only set up notifications for yourself. You won’t get notifications when you make changes on your spreadsheet, but you’ll get notifications when others make changes.
On your computer, open a spreadsheet in Google Sheets.
At the top, click Tools and then Notification settings and then Edit notifications.
In the window that appears, select "when" you want to receive notifications. Notify you when:
Any changes are made: Set notifications when someone makes a change to a spreadsheet.
A user submits a form: Set notifications when someone fills out a form.
In the window that appears, select "how often" you want to receive notifications. Notify you with:
Email - daily digest: Send a daily summary of all changes.
Email - right away: Send an email for every change.
Click Save.
Manage notifications for comments
On your computer, open a document, drawing, spreadsheet, or presentation.
You can either:
Go to Tools and then Notification settings.
In the top right corner of the file, click Open comment history Comment and then click Notification settings .
Under “Comments,” choose when you want to receive notifications:
All comments: You'll be notified about all new comments.
Comments for you: You'll be notified about @mentions and threads involving you.
None: Never receive emails about comments for that file.
Tip: You can also change your notification settings directly from the email notifications. When you receive an email notification for comments, click Notification settings within the email. Next to “Comments,” you can update your preferences for that file.
