How to manage your notification preferences
Notification preferences let you choose which events notify you and how, so you get the updates that matter without noise.
#When to use this
Use this when you are getting too many or too few notifications, or want to change how you are alerted.
#Step by step
1
Open notification preferences
Go to Settings and find notification preferences.
2
Choose what notifies you
Turn categories of notifications on or off to match your role.
3
Save
Apply your preferences.
#Expected result
What you should see
You only receive the notifications you enabled, in the ways you selected.
#Common mistakes
- Turning off notifications you actually rely on (like approvals).
- Assuming preferences apply to the whole team — they are per user.
#Troubleshooting
| If this happens | Try this |
|---|---|
| Still receiving unwanted notifications | Confirm you saved, and check whether the notification comes from a different category. |
| Not receiving expected emails | Verify email delivery is working — see Test email delivery. |
#Best practices
- Keep approval and security notifications on.
- Revisit preferences as your responsibilities change.
