Option Description
Watch builds
Use this section to define which builds you want to monitor.

The build fails
Check this option to receive notifications about all of the failed builds in the specified projects and build configurations.
Tip

If the Watch builds with my changes option is selected, you will not receive notifications about the next failed builds if they fail with the same errors. If someone takes responsibility for a failed build, all the subsequent notifications will be sent only to that developer.

Ignore failures not caused by my changes Check this option not to be notified when other people's changes caused a build of the specified build configurations to fail.
Notify when the first error occurs Check this option to receive notifications when the first errors are detected, even before the build has finished.
Build successful Check this option to receive notifications when a build of the specified build configurations has executed successfully.
Build starts Check this option to receive notifications when a build of the specified build configurations starts.
The build is probably hanging Check this option to receive notifications when TeamCity suspects that a build of the specified build configurations is hanging.
Responsibility changes Check this option to receive notifications about the responsible person's activities, like "responsibility taken", "problems fixed", "gave up", and the first successful build after the fixes.

Important!

Notification rules are applied in the order they are presented in the Watched builds and configurations table. The most specific rules are those set for specific build configurations; then go rules for all build configurations of a project; notifications for builds with my changes are the least specific.
