Notification Preferences
Notification preferences decide what alerts you receive and what appears in Inbox. Anything you get notified for can become an Inbox item.
Where preferences live
Section titled “Where preferences live”Notification settings can exist at multiple levels:
- Account or workspace defaults.
- Per-Space notification preferences.
- Sidekick notification preferences.
Common patterns
Section titled “Common patterns”| Space type | Notification pattern |
|---|---|
| Critical Space | Notify on threads and mentions. |
| Automation-heavy Space | Notify only on mentions or important results. |
| Experimental Space | Keep quiet until the workflow is stable. |
| Sidekick | Tune separately so personal work does not drown out team work. |
Keep Inbox actionable
Section titled “Keep Inbox actionable”If Inbox feels like a full activity log, reduce notifications. If important work is missed, increase them for the specific Space or automation.
What creates Inbox items
Section titled “What creates Inbox items”Inbox is downstream of notifications. Mentions, replies, Pings, Space activity, and automation results can all appear when your preferences say they should notify you.
