What is included in my Notifications Center?

TL;DR

LinearB displays all system notifications in a central location accessible from the top right corner of your screen. You can mark notifications as read or delete them after reviewing.

Your Notification Center

LinearB provides users with a 'home' for system notifications. All system notifications are located in the same place, and you are able to control/dismiss notifications after consuming them. The notification center will be available on the top right corner of your screen.

Managing Notifications

Click on the icon to access your notifications. If you have unread notifications, the number of unread notifications will appear on the bell icon.

Mark as Read

Click on the blue dot next to any alert to mark it as read. Read alerts will still be visible in your notifications when you view your notifications.

Delete Notification

Click on the x icon next to any notification to delete the notification. This notification will no longer be visible.

Notification Types

Untracked Repositories

Upon first connecting your Git account, LinearB will notify you of any active repos that have not been scanned to LinearB. Click "Yes, add the new repos" to have LinearB start monitoring activity. Click "Edit repo list" to view the current repos being monitored and also add any specific new repos.

New Repositories Found

LinearB is automatically scanning for new repos previously not part of your repo list. Whenever LinearB detects new repos you will be notified through the system notifications center. Click "Yes, add the new repos" to have LinearB start monitoring activity. Click "Edit repo list" to view the current repos being monitored and also add any specific new repos.

Review before publishing

QUALITY: 7/10

Confirm the following before publishing:

☐ Screenshot replacement applied: replaced animated gif (2021-08-13-13-21-17.gif) with static screenshot (screenshot-2026-06-10-at-20-17-42.png). Verify the new screenshot displays correctly in production.

☐ Heading "Your Notification Center" is noun-based rather than task-based; consider revising to task-based format such as "Access your notifications" or "View system notifications".

☐ Inline bell icon image (screen-shot-2021-08-16-at-1-04-34-pm.png) should be bolded as UI element or referenced differently: "Click on the bell icon" instead of embedding an inline image.

☐ Notification Types section includes inline screenshot (screen-shot-2021-08-16-at-1-04-18-pm.png) from 2021; verify this image still matches current UI.

☐ Body text uses passive constructions in places: "will be available" should be "is available", "will be notified" should be "notifies you", "will no longer be visible" should be "is no longer visible".

☐ Body text uses hedging language: "you are able to control/dismiss" should be "you can control or dismiss".

☐ UI button text "Yes, add the new repos" and "Edit repo list" should be verified against current production UI to ensure exact match of button labels.
