# Configure email notifications in Unified Security Exposure Management

Set up email notifications to share useful information about important updates and activities such as approval and rejection of false-positive requests. Creating an email notification involves specifying when to send it, who receives it, and what it contains.

## Before you begin

Role required: See [Access control lists \(ACLs\) for administration rules](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/security-management/sem-acls-for-admin-rules.md)

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **Workspaces** > **Security Exposure Management Workspace**.

2.  Select **Administration** in the navigation pane.

3.  Under **Others**, select **Review** on the **Notifications** tile.

4.  Select **New**.

    For detailed instructions on creating email notifications, see [Create an email notification](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/platform-administration/t_CreateANotification.md).


## Result

When a recipient clicks the links in an email notification, the links open in the Security Exposure Management Workspace or IT Remediation Workspace based on their role.

-   Links open in the Security Exposure Management Workspace for the users with the roles, sn\_vul.vulnerability\_analyst or sn\_vul.vulnerability\_admin.
-   Links open in the IT Remediation Workspace for the users with the role, sn\_vul.remediation\_owner.

If the recipient doesn’t have any of the preceding roles, the links in an email notification open in the classic UI.
