The Alerts window Email tab allows you to specify whether the alert will trigger an email when raised on the server, and if so, the details of that email.

If a dashboard is scheduled to refresh automatically and you would like an email sent if the new data results in the alert conditions resolving to true, follow the steps below;

First ensure the checkbox labeled Send an email when this alert is raised is checked, then enter the email address or addresses you want the email to be sent to. Add the text you want in the body of the email, and finally choose whether to include an image of the chart by selecting whether or not the checkbox labeled Attach an image of the object to the email is checked.

If you are a member of a group that has permission to manage the server you can configure the server so it has access to your mail server by pressing the Server Settings button.
