💁‍♀️ This article provides an overview of the in-app notifications page. You can also learn more about managing desktop and email notifications here.

You can check all your in-app notifications and manage them in a streamlined way from the Notifications page.

Checking your notifications

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

When you click on the notification bell icon, the Notification page opens with the “All” notifications section by default. You can see other options in the left panel.

Under the "All 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. By checking the "Only Show Projects With Updates" option on the left panel, you can directly focus on the specific projects you got notifications about.

You can also mark all of your unread notifications as read or mark a notification as unread.

Muting projects or styleguides

You can also mute your projects or styleguides, which you don't want to get notifications about. Hover over the project on the left panel and click the "Mute Project" option under the "..." options button menu. This also works the same way for styleguides.

Filtering notifications

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

Comments

All of the comment-related notifications are listed under the Comments section.

You will receive an in-app notification when:

  • A new comment is added to a screen.

  • A project member replies to a comment you added.

  • You are mentioned in a comment.

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

When you select a specific project from the left panel, you can filter the notifications based on types, members, and sections. You can also type the filters in the smart filter field.

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 the 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.

Tags

You can view all notifications for Tags under Tags section.

You will receive an in-app notification when:

  • A screen is assigned to you.

  • Any screen's status is changed.

Others

You can check the other types of notifications under this section. These notifications can be related to:

  • Added/removed extensions

  • Attached Jira issues

  • Teams/Slack integrations

  • Project/styleguide transfers
