    The code will work for pages provided the correct action is hooked and 2 parameters are collected. You can use ‘publish_page’ action. If your callback is passed the second parameter as $post, you don’t need global $post;.

    I suggest checking the current user ID against the page author ID before emailing so the original author is not notified of their own edits, only edits by others.

    Ok thx for the answer, i have changed the code

    function my_project_updated_send_email( $post_id ) {

	// If this is just a revision, don't send the email.
	if ( wp_is_post_revision( $post_id ) )
		return;
	$to = $author ;

	$post_title = get_the_title( $post_id );
	$post_url = get_permalink( $post_id );
	$subject = 'A post has been updated';

	$message = "A post has been updated on your website:\n\n";
	$message .= $post_title . ": " . $post_url;

	// Send email to admin.
	wp_mail( example@example.com, $subject, $message );
}
add_action( 'save_post', 'my_project_updated_send_email' );

    This should work, sorry I wasn’t more clear about how to get the $post object.

    function my_project_updated_send_email( $post_id, $post ) {

	// If this is just a revision, don't send the email.
	if ( wp_is_post_revision( $post_id ) )
		return;

	$author = get_user_by( 'id', (int) $post->post_author );
	$to = $author->data->user_email;

	$post_title = get_the_title( $post_id );
	$post_url = get_permalink( $post_id );
	$subject = 'A post has been updated';

	$message = "A post has been updated on your website:\n\n";
	$message .= $post_title . ": " . $post_url;

	// Send email to author
	wp_mail( $to, $subject, $message );
}
add_action( 'save_post', 'my_project_updated_send_email', 10, 2 );
