Showing my notifications

Notifications are displayed on the "Notifications" start page.

In the Notifier, you can show notifications in the following ways:

  • All notifications:

    All notifications generated by the notification rules are displayed.

  • My notifications:

    If you have not set any filter criteria, you will see all notifications.

    If you have set filter criteria, such as notification type = "Alert", then only the alerts are shown. For "My notifications", you can logically combine multiple filter criteria using "and" and "or" interconnections, such as notifications of type "Alert" or "Warning". This will show all alerts and warnings.
