Notifications

What the platform tells you about, and where it appears.

View as Markdown

The bell in the dashboard carries everything the platform needs you to know. Notifications also arrive as push on the installed mobile apps, and tapping one opens the page it refers to.

Quota warnings

You are notified when your organization's consumption crosses 70% and 90% of its monthly quota. Those are the same percentages at which the billing meters change colour, so the bell can never announce a number the dashboard does not also show.

Each threshold fires once per billing period, no matter how many calls follow, so a busy month produces two messages rather than a stream. If you are on a trial, the trial's own unit budget is tracked separately and warns at the same two marks — a trial can never reach 70% of a monthly quota, so without this it would get no warning at all before running out.

Warnings go to the organization owner.

Turning them off

Notification and push preferences live in the dashboard. Quota warnings are worth keeping on: they are the only proactive signal before calls start failing with 429 RATE_LIMITED.

For a programmatic check instead of a notification, poll /api/usage — it reports the same position and costs no units.
