SMTP service support in Lightrun¶

Before sending notifications via email, Lightrun requires a functional SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) service to automate email notifications and alerts in response to specific events. This service is essential for Lightrun’s user registration and authentication processes. By default, the Lightrun server is set with a preconfigured SMTP service.

Lightrun supports the following SMTP service configurations:

• Lightrun SMTP service: No action is required. This is the default.

• Custom SMTP service: Applicable if you are working in an air-gapped environment or if your organization requires an internal, dedicated SMTP service. For more information, see Set up a custom SMTP service.

• No SMTP service: Applicable when selecting the Password login method. For more information, see Set up Password login without SMTP.

  Note

  Supported from version 1.50 with enhanced Login experience activated. For more information, see Set up password login without an SMTP service.
