Create a dynamic distribution list based on organization subscriptions

To create a dynamic distribution list, you must have at least one of the following roles: Alert Manager, Advanced Alert Manager, Distribution List Manager, Enterprise Administrator, Organization Administrator, or Basic Administrator.

You can create a dynamic distribution list based on organization subscriptions to view users who are subscribed to each suborganization in an enterprise or super enterprise organization and to target them in alerts and accountability events.
