Frontline Portal - Notification types

Updated by Leigh Hutchens

We've outlined various notification scenarios, categorizing them by event and their corresponding delivery methods: in-app, push notification, and email. Whether it's notifying assignees about events, stories, or tasks or ensuring compliance review completion is communicated, the table below provides a detailed breakdown of how each notification type operates across different channels.
