# Notification center

In-app notifications help you stay informed about important changes and actions related to your account directly inside the application.

These notifications are closely connected with email notifications. In most cases, everything you receive by email is also available in the in-app notifications center. This gives you one central place to review updates, warnings, and actions that may require your attention.

### What can you do with notifications?

Every notification includes a call to action (CTA).

Depending on the notification type, the CTA allows you to:

* Review additional details,
* Fix an issue,
* Update settings,
* Or complete any other required action.

Notifications are designed to help you quickly understand what happened and what can be done next without searching through different parts of the application.

### Notification status

There are two different notification statuses:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Mark as read" %}
A notification becomes marked as read when you click its action link / CTA.

After that:

* the notification is no longer highlighted as unread,
* but it still remains visible in the notifications list.
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Archive notifications" %}

### Archive notifications

If you no longer need a notification, you can move it to the archive.

To archive a notification:

1. Open the notifications center.
2. Click the **Archive** button next to the notification.

Archived notifications are removed from the main notifications view.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### Notification severity levels

Notifications use three severity levels to help you understand how important they are.

### Info

Used for standard informational updates when no immediate action is required. Examples:

* “Dedicated IP request received”
* “Suppression list export is available - check your email.”

#### Critical

Used when there is a serious problem affecting the account. Critical notifications should be reviewed as soon as possible. Examples:

* “SMTP credentials leak detected for a domain.”
* “Email API/SMTP subscription has been downgraded to Free due to failed payment”

#### Warning

* “Add sender information to approve a domain.”
* “Email API/SMTP subscription expires in 7 days (payment failed again)”
