Understanding notifications

Notifications in Infor Ming.le are sent to you by the system to inform you of events that may interest you or require your attention.

You can receive notifications at these Infor Ming.le locations:

  • Your feed page, as determined by the Notifications settings in your profile.
  • The Notification menu option. The envelope icon is displayed in red to alert you that you have new notifications. Click the envelope icon to display the notifications menu, which shows how many new notifications have arrived. Click the Notifications link to access the Notifications page.
  • Your email in-box, if your administrator has enabled the email feature, as determined by the notifications settings in your profile.

If you are a group administrator, you receive notifications for the group as well as personal notifications.

These are examples of events that cause a notification to be sent:

  • You receive a new message.
  • Someone comments on a post you made.
  • You have new connection requests, or, if you are a group administrator, someone is requesting membership to a group of which you are the owner.

Some notifications are informational, such as a notification that a user commented on content that you shared. Other notifications require you to take action.

Examples of notifications that require action are:

  • User connection requests
  • Group membership requests, for group administrators
  • Invitations to join groups
