send user an alert when the initial ELT run has finished
For long running ELTs, it would be great to send the user an alert when the initial run is finished, so they'll remember to come back and complete the next step of their analysis. This is common in the first run, because we are backfilling a lot of data.
- In browser, if they have the application open
- By email, with a link to come back and analyze their data
Impact to MAUI could be meaningful, as they are less likely to forget all about Meltano and churn
This came up in a customer discovery call
Next Steps
-
Set up SMTP server (like Sendgrid, Mailgun) -
Draft a rough email -
Give them a way to opt in/out -
