The Abiquo Events Notifier is a Python application that uses the Abiquo Outbound API and the Abiquo API to monitor the Abiquo platform and send emails to notify users of events in Abiquo. You can configure the users, as well as the types of events that will trigger notification emails. By default, the Email Notifier accesses the Abiquo API every five seconds but you should tune this value for your installation. You can run the Abiquo Events Notifier on the Abiquo Server or on a separate server with access to Abiquo API.

Download the Abiquo Email Notifier script from the Abiquo Enterprise Support website.
