Locations in the Whitespark Local Platform with GBP Management enabled have convenient options for how to be notified of GBP updates.

You can configure your GBP Management update notifications from the Settings screen in the Local Platform.

Changes are saved automatically, so there's no need to click a save button.

To delete a notification, expand the notification and click Delete this notification located below the notification's options.

If you'd like to undo all of your changes, you can restore your account-level settings to the default.

To restore your settings, simply click Restore default settings at the bottom of the page and confirm your choice.
