Today i wanted to try out the new feature with notifications over Keywords.

I specified all Service-Checks I want a notification from with Keywords, set up a new Contact with access to all Hostgroups and to the specified Keywords. (but no access to all Service-Groups) But I don't get notifications for Host Up/Down nor for the Specified service-checks.

Note: I have not set up the Hosts with the Keywords of its Service- Checks - I know thats necessary for the Viewport, that both host and Service must have the same keywords - but for notification it would be much more comfortable to say: I give this service a Keyword and for this Keyword I wannna have notifications.

e.g., When I have 10 Checks with different Keywords on a Host - All the Keywords also have to be specified to this host? Must the user have the right on Service-Groups of the Service check to get notifications from the Keywords?

Notifications by keywords works the same as the viewports. If the services are displayed in the viewport, then a contact will get notified about them (and the hosts).

So you still need to associate the keyword to the host and to the service.

We have been thinking that some services could be marked as "special", so it would be like the keyword is already marked against all hosts (and vice versa), but that would be a sponsored request.
