Bell notification history

Hi everyone,

I have configured the bell notification to display when ever an incident is updated. However, I ran into a problem where the number of notification is limited.

I have 4 notifications in the bell notification yesterday, and today I create 5 more notifications, it seems like the number of notifications display created today has no limit but as notification created yesterday will have the limit number of display as when I delete the incident notification today the notification yesterday doesn't reappear, it is gone

This is the oob sys property where bell notification has been limited to 5. You can change it as per your requirement.

As a Admin , you can update it.

Hi, thank you for the support, I've tried changing the "glide.ui_notification.max_recipients" sys property  to greater than 5 but there were no changes to the outcome.

 

One of our customers told us that there were limitation to the number of notifications displayed in the bell notification tray/inbox. However, I've retested in our DEV env and ask other customers who are using it on the PROD env, and there were no problems. I found out that "ui_notification_inbox" table lists the notification that will be displayed in the bell notification tray/inbox, and I tried to manipulate it for testing and the outcome was not limited.

 

And also, I think that "glide.ui_notification.max_recipients" controls the number of recipients that will receive the notification:
