Notifications

Go Up to AppWave Configuration and Administration

When you open the AppWave Notifications page while logged in to the administrative pages, AppWave provides notifications of significant events such as errors, licensing problems, caching updates, product catalog update status, and the availability of new App versions.

You can specify how notifications are sent to you and what types of events you should be notified about.

View Notification Messages

1. In the menu bar click NOTIFICATIONS.
2. The Notifications pane appears. If there are any new messages, the number of new messages displays in parenthesis next to the NOTIFICATIONS option.

Note: At the bottom of the page you can change the number of messages that should be kept. When the limit specified is reached, older messages are dropped from the Notifications page and are no longer available.

Manage Notifications

	Mark a notification as having been read. Click the Mark as read icon to the right of the message.
	Delete a notification. Click the Delete notification icon to the right of the message.
	Mark all notifications as having been read. Click the Mark all as read icon at the top of the Notifications page.
	Delete all notifications. Click the Delete all icon at the top of the Notifications pane.
	View deleted notifications. Click the View deleted icon at the top of the Notifications page. Deleted Notifications do not display on the Notifications pane by default, but they are archived so you can still retrieve them until AppWave has been restarted, at which time the archive is cleared.
	Add a new application to a folder and make it available to users. Click the Publish icon and then on the Publish Applications pane, choose which folders to update with the new application and then click Publish Applications. The application will appear in the users’ lists of available applications but will still need to be downloaded to AppWave before the application can be launched.
	Download a new application to the AppWave repository. Click the Download icon to download an app. Downloading Apps to AppWave’s repository enables the user to more quickly run the Apps.
