# Send Notification

<figure><img src="/files/zarGSvXGMrIiAib81sgZ" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The **Send Notification** block allows you to send yourself an email notification.

{% hint style="danger" %}
The email will be sent to the email address associated with your ZeroWork account. If you need to send an email notification to recipients other than yourself, consider using a [Send HTTP Request](/using-zerowork/using-building-blocks/apis-send-http-request.md) block to integrate with third-party email APIs.
{% endhint %}

#### How To Use It

The Send Notifiaction block has two fields:

1. **Subject**: the plaintext subject of the email.
2. **Email notification content**: the plaintext or HTML body of the email.

#### Things To Know

* Both fields are required.
* Both fields accept [variable](/using-zerowork/using-variables.md) and [table](/using-zerowork/using-tables.md) references.

#### Block Behavior

* The **Email notification content** field accepts a mix of plaintext and HTML. You may minify HTML in this field to eliminate extra whitespace in the email's body.
* This block has a per minute sending rate limit. The rate limit is automatically applied when this block is activated within a [Start Repeat](/using-zerowork/using-building-blocks/start-repeat.md) loop.
* Emails are sent from `no-reply@notifications.zerowork.io`. Consider whitelisting this email address within your email client.
* Emails contain a standard footer text.
