Notification Center
Intro
We’ve had a very limited version of the Notification Center in Launchpad for a few months. The new version adds several new notification types and more:
New features
- Consolidated notification experience. The notification center now houses notifications about new file uploads, contract submissions, form submissions, and invoice payments. All notifications except for Messaging App notifications are now in the notification center.
- Quick actions. Depending on the type of notification you view, we now surface actions that we think will be most helpful. For example, for a paid invoice notification you can now download the invoice in one step.
- Mark read and delete actions. You can mark notifications as read by clicking on them, or you can go a step further and delete them permanently. Depending on whether you want to have an “inbox zero” experience or not, you can choose a direction that makes most sense.
- Bulk actions. When you click on the actions button, you bulk mark-as-read or bulk delete.
Coming soon
- We’ll be adding a
notification.completed.
webhook soon that will be available in our API, Zapier, and Make. While you can also listen to existing events (like formResponse.completed
), the benefit of this new trigger is that it covers most notifications for internal users, making it useful for scenarios like setting up Slack notifications via Zapier.
- There are few notifications which we currently only support via email like “New client sign up”. We will continue to add more notifications to the notification center. Note that you can control what you want to be notified about in your notification settings.
