Notifications | Communifire Documentation

Your notifications provide you with real-time alerts about activity and updates that are important to you. Notifications give you quick access to everything important to you, so you can take action the moment it's needed. Never miss an important update again.

You can view your notifications in page format by going to My Activity Stream > Notifications.

You can track your notifications using the exclamation mark icon in the header at the top of your screen. When a new notification comes in, you are alerted in two ways.

1. An alert appears in the lower left corner of your screen with a summary of the notification you just received.
   
2. A number appears next to the exclamation mark, indicating that you have an unseen notification. If other notifications arrive, that number increments automatically to accurately reflect your new updates. The image below shows a user with seven new notifications.
   

No matter what page you are on or what you are doing in Communifire, your Notifications feed provides real-time updates about news and information that is important to you.

When you are ready to view and interact with your notifications, click the exclamation mark icon to view a drop-down list of recent updates. You can then select a given notification to see it in more detail, or click View All at the top or bottom of the list to leave the page you are on and open the Notifications page in your full window.
