Emails from DataMind Platform

DataMind Platform sends a small set of emails: invitations, password reset links, usage alerts and the plan-change notice. Each one says why it was sent and what to do next; this page explains all four.

The four emails

Plan-change noticeYour company's plan is first assigned or changes.It goes to DataMind's billing and legal desk.

All four share one layout, contain no images and come from DataMind Platform.

The invitation email

An Administrator sends this email when they invite you to their company, and DataMind sends it when it approves access for a new company. The subject depends on the case:

The email carries an Accept invitation button and one notice: This invitation expires in 7 days and can be used once. If you did not expect it, you can ignore this email.

  1. Open the email and click Accept invitation.
  2. Continue on the page that opens. What it asks for depends on whether you are new to DataMind Platform; Get access and sign in walks through each case.

If your link no longer works, ask for a new invitation. Sending one replaces the older link; the details are on Users and invitations.

The password reset email

You receive this email after using Forgot password? on the sign-in page, or when an Administrator sends you a reset from the Users screen. The subject reads Reset your DataMind Platform password, the heading is Reset your password and the button is Reset password.

The email carries one notice: This link expires in 1 hour and can be used once. If you did not request a password reset, you can ignore this email - your password stays unchanged.

A newer reset request replaces older links, so when several reset emails arrive, only the most recent one still works.

Usage alert emails

While a billing window runs, the platform watches three meters: your premium tokens, your standard tokens and your spend cap. When a meter crosses a threshold, the company's active members each receive an email. The figures are the same ones the Dashboard shows, and each alert kind is sent at most once per company per billing window.

Each alert carries one button for your plans: View plans, or Compare plans on the saving suggestion.

The plan-change notice

When a company's plan is first assigned or changes, the platform sends a notice to DataMind's billing and legal desk. The notice's title is New subscription for a company's first plan and Plan changed for a switch, and its subjects read:

The notice puts Previous and Current side by side with Plan, Monthly price, Premium tokens, Premium overage / 1M, Standard tokens and Standard overage / 1M, and closes with Automated notification for the DataMind billing & legal desk.

How a switch affects the current month's invoice is on Pricing and Billing.

Questions, answered

How long is an invitation valid?

7 days, and the link works once. If it expires before you use it, ask for a new invitation.

I received two invitation emails. Which link should I use?

The newest one. A new invitation replaces the earlier link, which stops working.

How long does a password reset link stay valid?

1 hour, and the link works once. After that, request a new link from the sign-in page; Get access and sign in covers the steps.

I asked for more than one reset email. Which link should I use?

The link in the most recent email. A newer request replaces older links, including any you have not opened yet.

Who receives the usage alerts?

Every active member of your company, one email each.

We crossed an allowance between checks. Why did only one email arrive?

The highest crossed threshold wins. When a meter jumps from below to used up between checks, the used-up email replaces the 70% warning, and the warning is not sent late.

Why does the spend cap email say requests are being declined?

Because the cap is reached. New requests are declined until the next billing month, or until the cap is raised or the plan changes. An Administrator can change the cap on Pricing or in Settings.

The saving suggestion points to a cheaper plan. Is that right?

Yes. The suggestion compares the plans offered to your company against this month's usage and can point to a smaller plan as well as a bigger one; the details are on Pricing.

Who receives the plan-change notice?

DataMind's billing and legal desk, not the company's members. Your current plan is always on Pricing.

Can DataMind tell whether an email was delivered?

No. The platform records a send as accepted once the mail server takes the message; it does not receive delivery receipts, bounce reports or open tracking. If an expected email does not arrive, check your spam folder first, then ask for it to be sent again.

Do these emails support dark mode?

Yes. The layout is designed for dark mode, and the emails use no images; the wordmark is text.
