Manage notifications
Choose what you're notified about and where.
Available on all plans.
Available for all workspace members.
Your Inbox keeps all your notifications in one place, from @mentions and task assignments to requests waiting on your response. You also choose which notification types are sent to you by email or as push notifications on your phone.
View your inbox
Click the inbox icon next to Search at the top of your sidebar to open your Inbox.
The Inbox has two tabs:
Notifications: Every notification you've received, such as @mentions in notes or comments, replies to your comments, tasks assigned to you, and emails shared with you.
Action needed: Notifications waiting on your response, such as a request to access your email or an app update that needs your approval.
Click a notification to see its details. You can respond to a request directly from its details, for example by accepting or declining it. Opening a request marks it as read, but it stays in Action needed until you respond.
Filter and manage notifications
On the Notifications tab, click the filter icon at the top of your Inbox to choose what's shown:
Notification type: Select which types of notification appear.
Show read: Turn this off to see only unread notifications.
Opening a notification marks it as read. To mark everything as read at once, click the Mark all as read checkmarks icon at the top of your Inbox.
To manage a single notification, hover over it and click the ⋮ icon. Then select Mark as unread or Delete notification.
Choose where notifications are delivered
Every notification appears in your Inbox. For each notification type, you can also choose to get it by email, as a push notification on your phone, or both.
In your Inbox, click the filter icon, then Notifications settings.
Under Notification types, find the type you want to change.
Open its Notify on dropdown and select Email, Mobile, or both.
You can also open these settings from Settings. Under Personal, select Notifications.
You can set delivery for these notification types:
Mentions: Mentions in notes or comments.
Replies: Replies to your comments.
Assignments: Tasks assigned to you. You aren't notified when a task becomes due.
Shared with you: Emails shared with you.
Email requests: Requests to access your email, and alerts about missing email access.
Sequence invites: Invites to send sequences on someone's behalf.
App requests: App installation requests and app updates that need your approval.
Permission requests: Requests to access workflows, connections, and tools you manage.
Request updates: Approvals and denials of your own requests.
To get mobile notifications, notifications for the Attio app also need to be allowed in your phone's settings. Alert styles, such as banners, badges, and sounds, are managed in your iOS settings or Android settings. Learn more about Attio on mobile.
Get a daily task digest
The daily digest is a morning email summarizing your tasks that are overdue or due today. On the Notifications settings page, under Email digest, click the toggle to Enable daily digest. The digest is only sent on days you have tasks overdue or due today.

Frequently asked questions
To avoid sending you a separate email for every update, Attio can wait a short time before emailing a notification and combine it with others into one email. Requests that need your response are emailed right away.
Attio only sends task notifications for tasks created inside the app. Tasks created externally, such as through the API, intentionally don't trigger notifications. This prevents unwanted notification spam in cases where large numbers of tasks are created automatically.
