Application Scenario
FineBI provides an Information Notification function, which allows you to timely grasp the dynamics of data updates and immediately be informed when data updates fail.
Function Description
The Information Notification function can notify you via SMS/platform messages/emails when data updates fail.

To use the Information Notification function, ensure that only one FineBI project is launched on the server.
If multiple projects are launched, it will lead to WebSocket port conflicts, rendering the Information Notification function ineffective.
