Collaborate on File Requests

Is it possible for two people to receive an email notification when files are uploaded to a File Request?

      Thanks for the quick reply. I was hoping to use a File Request in our workflow but we have two people who need to monitor it. Perhaps we can hack together something with IFTTT instead.

    This would be a great feature to add.

    When you are setting up your file request, it would be great to add another user in your group who would get notified of file uploads.

    The request is to, when requesting File Requests, an email can be sent to me, and to multiple email addresses.

     

    Right now, my work around is to create an automatic forward rule in my email but I think if we are collaborating, by requesting files, it should be available to send to those we are collaborating with an email.
