What is an alert?

An alert is a saved search that automatically monitors new programs. When a program matches your criteria, you receive an email notification.

View your alerts

Go to "My Alerts" in the member menu.

Overview

At the top of the page, 3 indicators summarize your alerts:

  • Total number of alerts
  • Number of active alerts
  • Number of inactive alerts

List filters

Filter your alerts by:

  • Status: active only or inactive only
  • Frequency: daily, weekly or monthly

Information for each alert

  • Alert name
  • Status badge (green = active, gray = inactive)
  • Frequency badge
  • Configured keywords
  • Summary of applied filters (number of regions, countries, sectors, donors, agencies, budget)
  • Creation date

Create an alert

Click "Create an alert" at the top of the page.

Basic information

  • Alert name (required): give a descriptive name, for example "Agricultural programs Senegal"
  • Keywords (optional): type keywords separated by commas. The system will search for these words in program names, descriptions and objectives
  • Notification frequency: daily, weekly (default) or monthly
  • Activate the alert: check to have the alert start monitoring immediately

Geographic filters

Select one or more options in each list:

  • Regions: check the African regions that interest you
  • Countries: check specific countries

Thematic filters

  • Implementing agencies: check implementing agencies

Budget filter

Choose a budget range (optional):

Combination logic

All selected criteria work together (AND logic). A program must match all your criteria to trigger an alert.

Create an alert from a search

When you use filters on the program search page, a suggestion banner appears.

  1. Perform a search using your filters
  2. A banner displays: "Save this search as an alert"
  3. Click "Create an alert"
  4. Your filters are pre-filled in the form
  5. Give it a name, choose the frequency and validate

Edit an alert

  1. In your alerts list, click "Edit" (pencil icon)
  2. Change the name, keywords, filters or frequency
  3. Click "Update"

Activate or deactivate an alert

Click the "Pause" or "Activate" button to the right of each alert. The status changes instantly:

  • Pause: notifications stop, the alert is kept
  • Activate: notifications resume

Tip: deactivate your alerts during vacation instead of deleting them.

Delete an alert

  1. Click "Delete" (trash icon)
  2. Confirm the deletion
  3. The alert and its history are permanently erased

Warning: deletion is irreversible. When in doubt, deactivate the alert instead.

Unsubscribe by email

Each notification email contains an unsubscribe link at the bottom of the message. Click on it to deactivate the alert directly from your inbox.

Tips

Targeted alerts — Create several specific alerts rather than one broad one. For example: "Agriculture Senegal", "Digital West Africa", "SME all countries".

Clear naming — Give explicit names to recognize them easily.

Adjust after creation — Observe notifications for 1-2 weeks and adjust criteria if too many or too few programs match.
