Subscribe/Get notifications to blog

[swaradacs]

I was wondering if there is a way to subscribe to blogs?

Basically, the use case is the following

• A put article in the Space A blog
• B receives an email that a new article has been pushed into the Space A blog

I looked but did not find a way to get notifications:

You can follow the Confluene space or page, https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Subscribing+to+Email+Notifications+of+Updates+to+Confluence+Content

Thanks Erik this helps,
but this says,

Subscribe to all blog posts

Receive email notifications for changes to blogs in your Confluence installation that you have permission to view.

Blog posts added, edited or deleted.

Immediately

This will giva a lot of email notification as it says editing will also send out emails.

We just need if new article is pushed.

Swarada, I did not find a way to email just new articles. There is a checkbox when editing a Confluence page that allows the editor to specify a minor change. Once the minor change (newer versions of Confluence changed the box to say Notify Watchers) box is checked it will not send out a notification, but that requires the users to check the box(newer versions of Confluence would be to uncheck the box).

This would be a great new Confluence feature, I think our users begin to ignore their email when they get a notice for each update.

Not sure about email notifications, but you can have "B" opt into notifications via an RSS feed. You do this by building a link that points to the createrssfeed.action page in Confluence.
