Creating and tuning the alerts that warn you
Create my first alertYou create an alert from the home page, with the Create a keyword alert card: a name, your keywords, the followed sources and a frequency.Write precise alert keywordsDixit searches for exactly the words you write in your alert: it does not guess them or translate them, and six signs control the search.My alert returns too many results: how do I narrow it?A noisy alert usually comes from a keyword that is too broad or a scope that is too wide: replace the word with a phrase.My alert has stopped returning resultsA silent alert most often has a keyword that is too narrow or malformed, or simply no new publication matching what it looks for.Choose when alerts are deliveredEach alert has its own rhythm: daily at 08:10 for most things, as soon as available for high-intensity periods, or twice a day, or every Monday.My morning briefingThe briefing is the email that groups your alerts of the same frequency, one block per alert; the daily one goes out at 8.10 am Paris time.Which organisations are tracked for their publications?Dixit takes what trade associations, think tanks, research bodies, foundations and public bodies publish, plus French unions and associations.I am no longer receiving Dixit emailsIf no alert arrives any more, check your junk folder and your email filter first, before you touch your alert settings.
