Notifications in Zeplin

You can now check your all in-app notifications and manage them in a streamlined way with the new Notifications experience! 🎉

☝️ You can share your feedback about this new Notifications experience or switch back to the old notification window from the informative box up top of the page. If you already closed this box clicking on the "Got it!" button, no worries—you can still take these actions from the "👩🏻‍🔧 Prerelease" menu at the right top.

Checking your notifications

When you receive a new notification, you will see the red dot on the notification bell icon in the top-right. This way, you can easily understand that you have unread notifications and check them at anytime.

When you click on the notification bell icon, the new Notification page opens while “All” options are selected by default on the left panel.

Under the Projects and Styleguides section, Zeplin lists all projects and styleguides you're in so that you can easily filter your notifications by projects and styleguides. With checking "Only Show Projects With Updates" option on the left panel, you can directly focus on the projects which you got notifications about.

You can also mark all of your unread notifications as read or mark a notification as unread to check it again later on.

You can also filter the types of notifications you’d like to see from the left panel:

All

Under the All section, you can see all types of your notifications you received. You can also select one of your projects or styleguides while you’re on the All section to see all notifications for that project/styleguide specific.

Notes

All of the notes related notifications are listed under the Notes section.

You will receive an in-app notification when:

A new note is added to a screen.
A project member replies to a note you added.
You are mentioned in a note.

When you click on the relevant notification, you can see where exactly the note was added to and the note itself, at the right. You can reply to the note there, resolve it or mark it as unread back to check it later. You can also directly navigate to the screen where the note was added into.

You can filter the notifications based on types, members, and also filter based on sections when you select a specific project from the left panel.

Screens

All screen-specific notifications are listed under the Screens section.

You will receive an in-app notification when:

A new screen is added to a project you’re in.
A new version of a screen is added to a project you’re in.
A screen is deleted from a project you’re in.

You can see the preview of the screen/version added, add a commit message, and directly navigate to the screen as well.

Styleguide

You can check all of color, text style, spacing, and component related notifications under the Styleguide section.

You will receive an in-app notification when:

A color/text style/spacing token/component is added to a styleguide you’re in.
A color/text style/spacing token/component is updated to a styleguide you’re in.
A color/text style/spacing token/component is deleted to a styleguide you’re in.
