What is classed as an "automatic transaction" when it comes to notifications?

[digitlength]

I have setup email notifications, which works when pressing the "Send message" button in the Administration settings page - I receive an email in my inbox.

Since then, however, I have not received any notifications. I am successfully importing transactions via the importer through GoCardless, triggered periodically via cron. I have had a number of new transactions added since setting up the email stuff. But I'm not getting any emails.

I had assumed that "Alert when a transaction is created automatically" would send an email notification when a new transaction is added through the importer - is that assumption not correct?

The data importer has its own email configuration, you can find the details in the .env.example file of the data importer.

The automated transactions you refer to are recurring transactions.
