# Notifier
**Authelia** sometimes needs to send messages to users in order to
verify their identity.
## Configuration
```yaml
notifier:
disable_startup_check: false
template_path: /path/to/templates/folder
filesystem: {}
smtp: {}
```
## Options
### disable_startup_check
<div markdown="1">
type: boolean
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
default: false
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
required: no
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
</div>
The notifier has a startup check which validates the specified provider
configuration is correct and will be able to send emails. This can be
disabled with the `disable_startup_check` option:
### template_path
<div markdown="1">
type: string
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
default: ""
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
required: no
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
</div>
This option allows the administrator to set a path where custom templates for notifications can be found. Each template
has two extensions; `.html` for HTML templates, and `.txt` for plaintext templates.
| Template | Description |
|:--------------------:|:-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------:|
| IdentityVerification | Template used when registering devices or resetting passwords |
| PasswordReset | Template used to send the notification to users when their password has successfully been reset |
For example, to modify the `IdentityVerification` HTML template, if your `template_path` was `/config/email_templates`,
you would create the `/config/email_templates/IdentityVerification.html` file.
_**Note:** you may configure this directory and add only add the templates you wish to override, any templates not
supplied in this folder will utilize the default templates._
In template files, you can use the following variables:
| Placeholder | Templates | Description |
|:--------------------:|:--------------------:|:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------:|
| `{{ .LinkURL }}` | IdentityVerification | The URL of the used with the IdentityVerification template. |
| `{{ .LinkText }}` | IdentityVerification | The display value for the IdentityVerification button intended for the link. |
| `{{ .Title }}` | All | A predefined title for the email. <br> It will be `"Reset your password"` or `"Password changed successfully"`, depending on the current step |
| `{{ .DisplayName }}` | All | The name of the user, i.e. `John Doe` |
| `{{ .RemoteIP }}` | All | The remote IP address that initiated the request or event |
#### Examples
This is a basic example:
```html
<body>
<h1>{{ .Title }}</h1>
Hi {{ .DisplayName }}<br/>
This email has been sent to you in order to validate your identity.
Click <a href="{{ .LinkURL }}">here</a> to change your password.
</body>
```
