I have a notification set up when a new pulse is created. This is great, except it sends me the notification when I create the pulse. I am aware that I created the pulse. I just did it. I don’t need a notification to tell me I just did something, I just did it.
Can this notification exclude pulses created by me?
Yes, second this highly! The amount of notifications are high and it is unnecessary to receive these notifications since you create the items yourself
Our team faces a similar issue.
We use the “Board Automations” feature a lot to configure notifications that are important for us. We love that feature.
Let’s say I have configured a board-automation to notify me if anyone posts a comment in any item on a board. There is no way I can stop it from notifying me of my own comments which spams my notifications folder so much that i end up missing updates from other users since I’m tempted to just do a “Mark All As Read”.
To compare this with a real life example, imagine Facebook notifying you about your own comments.
If anyone knows of a way to get around this please let me know.
Hi @PaulH, @Eltjo, & @tkj167487 - thank you for taking the time to share this feedback! I certainly see what you mean about these notifications, and I’ve shared your support for this improvement directly with my team.
This is something we asked for directly with support months ago. I hope it becomes a notification setting because I hate when Monday sends me notifications for my own actions. It should exclude when you assign yourself to a pulse, create a pulse, etc. Like the OP said - we just did it, we don’t need Monday telling us we did it. 
Yessss, please. Smart and easy way to reduce the number of Notifications.
Maybe suppress notifications could be an option on automations and integrations. The inbox is ignored with so much noise. It could be useful.
This is similar to the feature I’m looking for as well. I’m a one-man department, so the default Task Owner on all items is me. Defaults are apparently assigned by an automation. And then I’m notified of the action it just took. I’d love a suppress notifications option there.
As it is now, I have disabled notifications and coworkers mostly know that they have to write an update on any items that they wish for me to see on their boards. It’s a bad situation.
