Before you begin

Notifications can appear in the app, by email, or through push alerts depending on workspace settings, browser permissions, and your role.

What you should see

Unread notifications should appear in the bell, and enabled notification channels should receive the alert types you selected.

Common issues

  • No push alerts — check browser and device permission
  • Too many alerts — turn off non-critical notification types
  • Missing admin alerts — your role may not receive that event type
