About the Connection Notification

When there are problems with a system, your users would like to know whether it is something that they control or if the issues are related to the network. You can't create messages for all situations, but you can let them know when the network connection is unstable.

There are two different applications that you can change the notification status for:

  • Regular Application (default status is ON)

  • Embedded Application (default status is OFF)

When the notification is on, everyone who uses the application on that tenant will see the notification in the top right corner of their application.
