Create a notification
In short
Open Notifications and click Create notification. Pick a type from Social proof, Urgency, Cart activity or Promotions and click Add. The editor opens with sensible defaults, so you can save it as is or change the text, design, placement and timing first.
Step 1: Open Notifications
Click Notifications in the app menu. The list shows every notification with its status and type.
- Create notification (1) adds a new one.
- The tabs (2) filter by type.
- The action icons (3) pause, edit or delete a notification.
Step 2: Choose a type
Click Create notification and pick a type. Each card shows a small preview and what it does. Click Add (1) on the one you want.
Further down are the urgency types, such as Countdown Timer (1), the cart activity types and the Promo Bar (2).
