Overview

Notifications tell you what needs attention: new conversations, assignments, mentions, replies and module events. Each agent controls their own preferences, choosing where they want to be alerted:

  • In-dashboard: the notification bell inside the platform.
  • Email: summaries and alerts in your inbox.
  • Push: alerts in the browser and/or the mobile app.

Prerequisites

  • Being signed in with your user (preferences are per agent).
  • For browser push: allow notifications when the browser asks.
  • For mobile push: have the app installed and an active session.

Step by step

  1. Open your profile and go to the notifications/preferences area.
  2. Choose the events you want to be alerted about (e.g., new assigned conversation, mention, reply).
  3. Select the notification channels for each event (dashboard, email, push).
  4. If you'll use browser push, authorize notifications in the browser prompt.
  5. Save and test by generating a conversation/mention to validate.

Settings & options

  • Per event: toggle each alert type individually.
  • Per channel: dashboard, email and push independently.
  • Sound/visual: audible alerts and unread counters in the dashboard.
  • Per-agent preferences: each person tunes their own, without affecting the team.

Use cases

  • Receive push only for conversations assigned to you.
  • Use email for an end-of-day summary and the dashboard for real time.
  • Make sure mentions always alert, even with the rest muted.

Tips, limits & best practices

  • Avoid turning everything on: too many notifications become noise and get ignored.
  • Prioritize assignments and mentions β€” usually what matters most.
  • If push doesn't arrive, start by checking browser/system permissions.

Troubleshooting

  • I don't get browser push: check the site's notification permission and that it isn't blocked at the operating system level.
  • I don't get emails: check spam, your profile email and that the event is enabled.
  • I get too many notifications: reduce events/channels in your preferences.
  • Preferences won't save: reload the page and try again; confirm you're signed in.
