# Notifications

> What Node Lodge e-mails you, what stays in the console, and how to change it in Notification settings.

Events appear in the console: the bell in the top bar counts what you have not read, and **Notifications** lists them all. An e-mail goes out only for money, security, or something only you can act on.

## What is e-mailed

| Event | E-mail |
|---|---|
| Two-factor authentication turned on or off | Always |
| New API key | Always |
| Payment refused, machines stopped | Always |
| Credit goes under your alert amount | On, you can turn it off |
| Reservation of a day or more ends in about an hour | On, you can turn it off. E-mail only: the console already shows the end time. |
| Credit added | Off, you can turn it on |
| Session ready | Off, you can turn it on |
| Session ended | Off, you can turn it on |
| Session ends in 15 minutes | Console only |

For providers:

| Event | E-mail |
|---|---|
| Machine approved | On, you can turn it off |
| Machine not approved | On, you can turn it off |
| Machine offline for more than 10 minutes | On, you can turn it off |
| Machine back online, after an offline e-mail | On, you can turn it off |
| First rental of a machine | Off, you can turn it on |
| Listing paused or restored by Node Lodge | Off, you can turn it on |

E-mails marked **Always** concern your account's security or a stopped service: they cannot be turned off.

## At most three a day

Apart from the e-mails marked **Always**, you receive at most three e-mails in any 24 hours. Beyond that, the events stay in the console.

## Change your settings

Open **Settings**, then **Notification settings** (also reachable from **Notifications**):

- Turn the e-mail of each event on or off. Events marked **Always** stay on.
- Set the amount under which your credit triggers an alert. Without one, the alert comes when your credit falls under 20 percent of your last top-up, or a minimum amount, whichever is higher.

The e-mails you can turn off carry an unsubscribe link for their event: one click stops that event's e-mails, and the console keeps showing it.

## In the console

- Select the bell to see the latest events. Most open the page they are about.
- **Notifications** lists them all. Mark one as read, or all of them at once.
