# Content Pack Update Notifications

You can receive daily notifications of content packs that have available updates. When you enable notifications, they are sent only to you, via email, Slack, or other notification service, depending on your user settings. Notifications are enabled and disabled on a per content pack basis.

{% hint style="info" %}

### Note

(Multi-tenant) You can only subscribe to content pack updates from the Main Account. Tenant accounts do not have a subscription option.
{% endhint %}

**Enable Content Pack Update Notifications**

You enable content pack update notifications only after the content pack is installed. Go to Marketplace → **INSTALLED CONTENT PACKS**, search for the content pack, and click ![content-pack-notifications-icon.png](/files/xwdahYlkl1Bc39fEoQuN) (on the upper right). To cancel, click the icon again.

{% hint style="info" %}

### Note

You can also disable notifications for individual content packs by clicking **Stop Notifications** in the daily email.
{% endhint %}

**View Content Packs with Notifications Enabled**

To view a list of all content packs with notifications, go to Marketplace → **INSTALLED CONTENT PACKS** and in the **Show** field, select the **Notifications active** filter.

**Opt Out of Notifications**

You can temporarily or permanently opt out of notifications for all content packs, without disabling the notification option for individual content packs. The content packs still appear in the **Notifications active** list.

1. Click your username (in the Cortex XSOAR side menu).
2. In the **Notifications** tab, expand the option for **Other Notifications**.
3. In the **Marketplace Content Packs Updates** field, select the checkbox to enable or disable notifications.

**Customize Content Pack Notifications**

You can customize the time and frequency of content pack update notifications, as well as the length of the release notes for email notifications.

**Change the Frequency and Notification Times**

By default, notifications are sent once a day at 9:00 AM, and only if there is an update to a content pack. You can change the default time for the notification or receive notifications more than once a day.

{% hint style="info" %}

### Note

You cannot set notifications for less than once a day.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/xsoar-6-administrator-guide/6.12/onboard-cortex-xsoar/onboarding-in-cortex-xsoar/marketplace/content-pack-update-notifications.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
