&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Hi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span&gt;I have set up a HitType and enabled notifications for all event types using the C# API however no notifications from MTurk are being received.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span&gt;I enable notifications using the following&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="color:black; background-color:white"&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;&lt;span style="color:blue"&gt;var&lt;/span&gt; notificationTypes = &lt;span style="color:blue"&gt;new&lt;/span&gt; List&amp;lt;EventType&amp;gt; {
                EventType.AssignmentAbandoned,
                EventType.AssignmentAccepted,
                EventType.AssignmentReturned,
                EventType.AssignmentSubmitted,
                EventType.HITExpired,
                EventType.HITReviewable}.ToArray();
 
            &lt;span style="color:blue"&gt;var&lt;/span&gt; notificationSpecification = &lt;span style="color:blue"&gt;new&lt;/span&gt; NotificationSpecification
                                                {
                                                    Destination = MTurkNotificationUrl,
                                                    EventType = notificationTypes,
                                                    Transport = NotificationTransport.REST,
                                                    Version = MTurkConstants.NotificationVersion
                                                };
            _client.SetHITTypeNotification(hitTypeId, notificationSpecification, &lt;span style="color:blue"&gt;true&lt;/span&gt;);
...
}
&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span&gt;I have tested that the REST endpoint is accessible externally and used the SendTestNotification API call to verify this.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span&gt;There must be something wrong with either the code to enable the notifications or something at the Amazon end. Are notifications sent for sandbox HITs??&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Any help is most appreciated!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span&gt;rich&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Project Description&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Amazon Mechanical Turk SDK for .Net is a set of libraries and tools designed to make it easier for you to build solutions leveraging Amazon Mechanical Turk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Amazon Mechanical Turk is a marketplace for work that requires human intelligence. The Mechanical Turk web service enables companies to programmatically access this marketplace and a diverse, on-demand workforce. Developers can leverage this service to build human intelligence directly into their applications.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mechanical Turk offers access to a virtual community of workers that are available to help you accomplish your business goals. A robust set of APIs and command line tools enable you to programmatically distribute tasks that require human intelligence to a widely distributed, on-demand workforce.
