Description

Hello, Dataverse team!

I've been working on some customizations for Dataverse and came across a need that perhaps other users might also have. Currently, according to the documentation on "Letting Users Manage Notifications", we have the :AlwaysMuted and :NeverMuted options.

I'd like to specifically disable email notifications for CREATEDS, DATASETCREATED, and PUBLISHED, but I still want these notifications to appear on the user interface.

Using the command:

curl -X PUT -d 'CREATEDS, DATASETCREATED, PUBLISHED' http://localhost:8080/api/admin/settings/:NeverMuted

This will disable both email sending and interface notifications. However, is there a way to only enable interface notifications by passing some flag, or by any other means?

Research direction

Start with the “Letting Users Manage Notifications” documentation and the /api/admin/settings/:NeverMuted endpoint described in the issue. Determine whether CREATEDS, DATASETCREATED, and PUBLISHED can remain visible in the interface while email delivery is disabled, and define the configuration behavior needed for that separation.
