Events and Messages: Reactive

3 min read

Have ProVide notify users or initiate actions when events occur using powerful scripting facilities! This extension allows ProVide to enforce user scriptable rules and policies such as virus checks on uploaded files, automatically transform between file formats, and to send notifications about special events.

Of course these events can be overridden on a per user/group level with system wide defaults.
