## Configure Process Notifications

**Permissions Required**

Your user account or group membership must have the following permissions to configure a Process unless your user account has the **Make this user a Super Admin** setting selected:

- Processes: Edit Processes
- Processes: View Processes

See the [Processes](/v1/docs/permission-descriptions-for-users-and-groups#processes) permissions or ask your Administrator for assistance.

- **Request completed:** A Request for this Process completed.
- Request error: A Request for this Process has an error.
- Request comment: A Request for this Process has comments.

Process notifications can be sent to the following sets of users or group members:
