Customizing 3DNotifications

Notifications alert you about events that involve or interest you. For events in your apps and services, some notifications are automatic, and some you can subscribe to. For example, you might receive a notification when someone comments on one of your posts, shares a dashboard with you, or assigns you a task. You can control how you receive your notifications for each supported event. You can receive emails for certain events, and access the 3DNotification Center for others. The 3DNotification Center groups similar notifications. For example, if one of your posts is commented on several times, the related notification includes the number of comments.

This task shows you how to:
