Determine which Pega account should be the primary account. This is the account you must be logged in to when you start the Pega account merge wizard.

Tag Sets

Create tag sets based on an individual product or capability. Be selective when adding more than one tag - the more tags you add, the more specific your notifications become, which will result in fewer content matches. If you are interested in multiple product versions or capabilities, create a tag set for each one. 

See this video walkthrough on how to share a tag set.

      No, your existing Support Center preferences have been migrated to the new system, so you won’t receive duplicate notifications.

      Although you can turn off your weekly digest for each individual tag set, we recommend identifying the content or tag-set that is generating the high volume of notifications. You can unfollow content or modify your tag set to make it more granular, and reduce the number of notifications that you receive. 

      Currently, notifications apply only to content that is available to all Community Users. If the mission is restricted to users who are Partners, you will not receive a notification.

      Instant notifications are displayed in the Bell icon. At this time, instant email notifications cannot be configured. 

      The Tag-Set Builder feature of the new notification system replaces any preferences you previously set in My Pega, for the Support Center. The new notifications system allows you to follow content that interests you all across Pega Community, the Support Center, and Pega Academy. 

      My Activity

      The Content You Follow section contains only the content for which you have selected Follow. Authors will auto-follow Support Center posts, and your Support Center activity can be viewed on your Activity page.
