Confluence 3.5.5: Where are the Emails settings stored in database?

[Cheryl Lu]

(environment.txt) (environment.txt) We'd like to see how the profile / settings / email settings are stored in the database. For example, when the "Subscribe to network", "autowatch", "subscribe to daily updates", "Subscribe to all blog posts", and "Notify on my actions" boxes are checked, how this information is saved in the database. Could you advise which table(s) to look at?

Also, are there more options / granularities offered for "Subscribe to network"? For example, notifications for page update, notifications for attachment added...?

These are held in the os_propertyentry table.

e.g. the Daily summary can be found like

select * from os_propertyentry where entity_key like 'confluence.prefs.daily.summary.receive.updates';

For the full list of keys take a look in the confluence source under

confluence-project/confluence-core/confluence/src/java/com/atlassian/confluence/user/UserPreferencesKeys.java

The current list is

PROPERTY_USER_SUBSCRIBE_TO_DIGEST = "confluence.prefs.email.notify"
PROPERTY_USER_NOTIFY_FOR_MY_OWN_ACTIONS = "confluence.prefs.notify.for.my.own.actions"
PROPERTY_USER_WATCH_MY_OWN_CONTENT = "confluence.prefs.watch.my.own.content"
PROPERTY_USER_EMAIL_SHOW_DIFF = "confluence.prefs.email.show.diff"
PROPERTY_USER_NOTIFY_ON_NEW_FOLLOWERS = "confluence.prefs.notify.on.new.followers"
PROPERTY_USER_SUBSCRIBE_TO_RECOMMENDED_UPDATES = "confluence.prefs.daily.summary.receive.updates"
PROPERTY_USER_SUBSCRIBE_TO_RECOMMENDED_UPDATES_SET = "confluence.prefs.daily.summary.receive.updates.set"
PROPERTY_USER_RECOMMENDED_UPDATES_SCHEDULE = "confluence.prefs.daily.summary.schedule"

Yep, it's in os_propertyentry table as mentioned above. In addition, both global email and space email configurations are stored in Confluence BANDANA table. The following query will display the settings:

SELECT * FROM BANDANA where BANDANAKEY='atlassian.confluence.space.mailaccounts';

SELECT * FROM BANDANA where BANDANAKEY='atlassian.confluence.smtp.mail.accounts';

Hi,

There's a page describing the Confluence database schema at http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Confluence+Data+Model , but it looks a bit out of date.

The network information is stored in a table called FOLLOW_CONNECTIONS:

mysql> describe FOLLOW_CONNECTIONS;
+--------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field        | Type         | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+--------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| CONNECTIONID | bigint(20)   | NO   | PRI | NULL    |       |
| FOLLOWER     | varchar(255) | NO   | MUL | NULL    |       |
| FOLLOWEE     | varchar(255) | NO   | MUL | NULL    |       |
+--------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+

and the page and space watches are stored in a table called NOTIFICATIONS:

mysql> describe NOTIFICATIONS;
+----------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field          | Type         | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+----------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| NOTIFICATIONID | bigint(20)   | NO   | PRI | NULL    |       |
| PAGEID         | bigint(20)   | YES  | MUL | NULL    |       |
| SPACEID        | bigint(20)   | YES  | MUL | NULL    |       |
| USERNAME       | varchar(255) | NO   |     | NULL    |       |
| CREATOR        | varchar(255) | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| CREATIONDATE   | datetime     | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| LASTMODIFIER   | varchar(255) | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| LASTMODDATE    | datetime     | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| DIGEST         | bit(1)       | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| NETWORK        | bit(1)       | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| CONTENTTYPE    | varchar(255) | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
+----------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+

The only granularity I know of in network subscriptions is by hacking the RSS feed. Details on this are available at http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Subscribing+to+a+Network+RSS+Feed

Hope that helps,

Andrew.
