# Notifications

Deployment requests waiting for you, and notices as your plan's allowances run low.

## What you are told about

TypeFuse notifies you about three things:

- **Approval requests.** When someone asks to deploy or remove a release in an environment that
  requires approval, everyone who could approve it is notified. The notification goes away once the
  request is approved, rejected or cancelled, and it can't be dismissed while it waits. Where an
  environment's approval rules leave nobody able to approve a request, its owners and admins and
  the requester are told so instead, with how to resolve it. See
  [Deploying, environments and approvals](https://typefuse.dev/guides/deployments#approvals).
- **Plan usage.** Owners and admins are told when the organisation passes 85% and then 95% of an
  allowance that resets, such as the month's production calls. Each notice comes once a period and
  can be dismissed. See [Plans and usage](https://typefuse.dev/guides/plans).
- **Exports.** When a large export you asked for is ready (or couldn't be made), you are told, for
  as long as its file is kept. It can be dismissed. See
  [The Decision log and audit](https://typefuse.dev/guides/decision-log#exports-and-evidence-packs).
- **New members.** When someone accepts an invite you sent, you're told who joined and with which
  role. The notice stays for 30 days and can be dismissed. See
  [Inviting people](https://typefuse.dev/guides/organisations#inviting-people).

## The bell

The bell in the top bar shows notifications from every organisation you belong to, whichever one you
are in, and each names its organisation. Its count is approvals waiting for you plus notices you
haven't read. It opens the latest eight:

- **Review** opens the Decision's Deployments page, where you approve or reject. You never approve
  from the list itself.
- **Billing** opens Settings → Plan.
- **Members** opens the organisation's Members page.
- **Exports** opens Audit → Exports, where the file waits to be downloaded.
- **See all notifications** opens the full list, where **Mark all as read** clears the count.

In the organisation switcher, each organisation shows its own count, so you can see where something
is waiting.

Agents can read your notifications too, through MCP or `typefuse notifications`.

## Email

Approvers are emailed about requests in production environments, and owners about the 85% and 95%
notices. TypeFuse's email isn't switched on yet, so for now these notifications appear only in the
app, and nothing sent while email was off is sent later.
