Hi, I have created a Notification to inform users about Outages, this is working fine.
The only problem I am experiencing is that push notifications are only sent if users enable it manually on their Settings > Notifications options.
I need to make this enabled by default but can't find where I can set this.
If there's an option similar to Mandatory for email notifications, which can't be turned off, it'd be great.

This is most probably controlled through user preference. Just set the preference for a user manually and verify what record got inserted in the user preference table. Write a fix script and insert the same record in preference table for all the users.

What about for new users? I believe it'll be disabled by default...

Add a business rule for that. Fix script is for one time fix.
