# Manage notifications (/docs/guides/notifications)



Notifications surface reliability and safety decisions that need attention. The in-product inbox is the main place to review them.

## Review the inbox [#review-the-inbox]

Open the bell in the page header or go to **Settings > Notifications**. Use search and the state and priority filters to narrow the list.

Common notifications include:

* A high-severity finding was confirmed
* A critical journey degraded
* An important action could not be verified
* A resolved finding recurred
* Required journey coverage is incomplete
* A safety limit is under pressure
* Cleanup or restoration failed

Open a notification before marking it read. The linked finding, run, journey, or safety control contains the decision and evidence.

## Email delivery [#email-delivery]

Open **Settings > Notification settings** to choose which updates are also sent by email. Required in-product notifications cannot be disabled. Email is an additional delivery channel, not the source of truth.

If an email delivery fails, the item remains available in the in-product inbox. Check the failed-channel summary and ask an administrator to review delivery health if failures continue.

## Priority [#priority]

| Priority | Typical use                                                                            |
| -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Critical | Immediate safety, restoration, or severe verification problem                          |
| High     | Confirmed severe finding, degraded critical journey, or missing consequential evidence |
| Medium   | Important assessment or workspace update                                               |
| Low      | Informational preference or routine update                                             |
