# Notification Subscriptions

The DDOE notification system allows you to stay informed of updates, issues, and alerts in all your projects. Notifications cover your active project and all projects within your active organization, depending on your role. By default, notifications will be received via enabled channels, such as email and the DDOE inbox.

You can easily access the inbox notifications via the **bell** icon in the top-right corner of the platform. When new notifications are available, a counter appears on top of the bell icon (your inbox).

---

## Notification Categories

The notification system supports the following categories of alerts:

### Automations - Pipeline and Application Services

**Prerequisites**: To subscribe Pipeline and Application alert notifications in your project/s, ensure you have either the **Project Owner** or **Developer** role. All permitted users are automatically subscribed by default.

When the system triggers an alert, a notification is sent to its subscribers. You can manage your notification subscriptions from your [Manage Notifications Subscriptions](https://docs.dataloop.ai/docs/notification-system#manage-notifications-subscription) topic.

Important

You cannot disable System Notifications.

### Workflow - Tasks and Assignments

The users will get notified about workflow updates in the following cases:

- **Task owners** get notified when a task is created, updated, and completed, or when the due date expires. Also, be notified when assignments are completed.
- **Task users (assignees)** get notified when being assigned to a new assignment, being removed from it, or on updates in the assignment, including priority changes and due date expiration.

When the system triggers an event, a notification is sent to its subscribers. You can manage your notification subscriptions from your [Manage Notifications Subscriptions](https://docs.dataloop.ai/docs/notification-system#manage-notifications-subscription) topic.

## Notification Retention Policy

The DDOE platform retains inbox notifications for a maximum of 90 days.

---

## Notification Frequency

#### General

The notification system groups display notifications based on the related entity ID and notification type, to prevent overload.

#### Email Notifications

- You will not receive more than one email notification for the same error within an hour.
  - Service or Pipeline notifications: You will receive notifications for each service ID, Pipeline ID, or error type.
  - Workflow notifications:
    - You will receive notifications for task ID or Assignment ID.
    - You will receive notifications for every new task or assignement.
- If you deactivate the email channel, it does not stop the system's notifications. You will receive system notifications via email.
