# Receive email notifications

> You can receive emails from Semgrep regarding **new findings** and **failed scans**.

<note>
  <strong>Note:</strong> Email notifications are not supported by Unified Policies. If you currently have an email integration set up with your legacy policies, no additional emails will be sent after you migrate to Unified Policies.
</note>

Perform these steps in Semgrep AppSec Platform to create an email integration and receive notifications:

<Steps>
  <Step>
    Create an email integration:

    i. On the navigation menu, click **<Icon icon="gear" iconType="solid" /> Settings > Integrations > Add**.

    ii. Click on **Email**.

    iii. Enter a **Name** for the integration.

    iv. Enter the **Email** address to receive Semgrep findings.

    v. Click **Subscribe**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Turn notifications on:

    i. Click **Rules > Policies > <Icon icon="gear" iconType="solid" /> Rule Modes**.

    ii. Click the **Edit** button of the Rule Mode for which you want to receive email notifications. For example, if you want to be notified of all blocking findings through email, click the **Edit** button of the **Block** mode.

    iii. Repeat the previous step for all Rule Modes that you want to receive notifications for.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Notification and alert de-duplication

Notifications are sent only the first time a given finding is detected.

When running a diff-aware scan, Semgrep doesn't notify you when a pull request has a finding that existed on the base branch already, even if that line is moved or re-indented.

Semgrep also tracks notifications that have already been sent, so subsequent scans of the same changes in a pull request won't result in duplicate notifications.

<Info>
  **NOTE**

  See [Findings in CI](/semgrep-ci/findings-ci) for more information about how Semgrep tracks a finding through its lifetime.

### Number of emails

Emails about new findings are triggered only once. These emails also include a **summary** of current open findings.
