View Okta notifications

On your apps dashboard, you receive notifications from your administrators. Previous messages are also available from the Notifications menu.

You receive notifications when new apps are assigned to you. These are one-time messages that are sent automatically. When you close the Notification box, the new app assignment message is removed. You can find newly assigned apps at the top of the app catalog of your dashboard.

You also receive notifications sent by your administrator. The administrator creates and manages these notifications.

When there’s a new message, the Notifications list automatically displays when you access your Home page. You can reopen the list at any time to review previous messages.

To view previous notifications, click the Notifications tab with the bell icon in the left sidebar of the Okta End-User Dashboard.
