3. Email or Slack notifications about your Phantoms' activities

Choose whether you'd like notifications only when you launch the Phantom manually, automatically, or both, and whether you'd like them via Email or Slack.

Notifications - options explained:
- "Finished successfully" for a successful launch.
- "Finished with error" for a launch that ended in error due to a problem with the Phantom's setup - e.g. an invalid session cookie or not being able to access your spreadsheet.
- "Launch error" for when a Phantom failed to launch altogether - e.g. no remaining execution time or parallel launch limits.
- "Time limit reached" to notify you that your execution time limit, or the time limit you set for the Phantom, has run out for the day.
