  • 1.  Alert rules - sending in-app but not to Gmail - what am I doing wrong?

    Posted 06-30-2026 15:56

    I set up an Alert Rule for when a Voicemail has waited 15+ minutes in a VM queue.

    We get the in-app notifications for these, but after working for a while, they Gmail alert emails have stopped delivering to any of the nine recipients' Gmail inboxes. 

    I shared an image of the Alert Rule setup. Am I doing something wrong here, or could it be a bug? Thanks

    Genesys inbox - 5 have arrived since June 17, the last to arrive in Gmail
    Gmail inbox - most had been arriving in Gmail, but none since June 17

    Hello Ben,

    I haven't heard of this happening for anyone else in the community or seen any cases related to something like this. I'm wondering if somehow those emails are either being filtered by a Gmail rule or accidentally getting caught in the spam folder? Are other email alerts being received from Genesys Cloud?

    Thank you for the reply. We checked that, but emails weren't being blocked. I think it's more a matter of how I think or want the Alert rules to work versus understanding how they are actually set up to deliver based on the conditions chosen. Ironically, since I posted this yesterday, we received 4 of the Gmail alerts.

    Hi Ben, Are the alerts going to a Genesys cloud account and being forwarded from there?

    Hi Phaneendra, they are not. I think it's more a matter of how I think or want the Alert rules to work versus understanding how they are actually set up to deliver based on the conditions chosen. Ironically, since I posted this yesterday, we received 4 of the Gmail alerts.
