How to send notification to other specific user?

i have workflow notification like this :

so my flow is, when the employee create project and hit submit button then it will create and send notification to the particular division who have task to review the new project.

i try to make my recepient like in the picture above but it doesnt work. the recepient in the database is still empty.

how is the best way to to send to specific user? any advice? thank you.

Hi there, @kerjakansemua.work… if I understand your post correctly, try adding the :first item operator to the end of your search expression, and I believe you should be good to go.

Best…

i try but its still won’t cacth the user. any option?

Do you have any privacy rules on the User data type? If you do, you will likely need to allow everyone else to find users in searches and access the Position field.

you right @mikeloc its work!!
before i haven’t check the “find this in search” and now after i checked it its cacth the user data.

thank you i’ll give attention to this.
thanks in advance :slight_smile:

oh hi @mikeloc just want to know your opinion,
i have notification to user and for the division of the company. is it better if i have just 1 database notification than contains all notification for all, or i make separate database notification (for user and for company)?.

thank you.

Without knowing the details of your app, I would say if a user is part of a division to which you are sending a notification, then I’m not sure why you would send a separate notification to the user, unless the separate notification is tailored in some way to that specific user.

so lets say the user i mention is a college student and the division i mean is a group of lecturer/tteacher.
students will only receive notifications about the progress of the project they submit,
whereas teachers or lecturers who are divided into several divisions will receive more and more diverse notifications. I just thought that notifications between students and lecturers would not be confused or leaked.

In that case, I would very likely have the notification to the student be a separate notification.

allright. thanks for your answer. i’ll make the other one.

thank you @mikeloc in advance. very helpful.
