 Hi,

 We have an app in which members sometimes have lengthy private message
 conversations; some members may have 300+ messages within a single thread.
 We will be utilising Firebase notifications to send app users
 notifications of new private messages. The combination of Firebase
 notifications and email notices means that app users get multiple
 notifications of each new private message. We could disable the email
 notices, however, we also have a cohort of users who only use our website,
 and therefore rely on the email notices.

 If possible, it would be great to have the ability to allow app users to
 update their email notice/notification settings through the REST API. This
 would also allow us to set email notifications off by default for users
 who log in through the app (but users could then turn it back on, if they
 wish). This would be more convenient for app users, but also would also
 reduce the volume of emails going out, keeping email providers happier.

 Please let us know if the ability to do this already exists and we've
 overlooked it.

 Thanks.
