There are many options you can subscribe to but the most useful ones would probably be if your report is ready for download, a report encountered an error, and a specific item in a folder has been changed that would affect the output of your reports.\n  * Global Report\n  * Subscribe to folders that contain reports\n  * Folders / Search Folders that are part of the report\n\n\n##Planners / Account Managers\nAs a Media planner / Account manager you want to ensure that a campaign is running as expected.

For example you would like to know when Creative A has been published so that you can communicate to your Ad Operations team it is ready to be trafficked.\n  * Subscribe to Folders\n  * Specific Item subscriptions\n\n## External Team\nAs an external team member there can be a variety of activities that you would like to track. From my experience most of these external team members have been Creative teams that are building units for a given organization.
