Notifications, watching & live updates

The bell, watching records, and how changes appear across everyone's screens as they happen. The bell The topbar bell collects everything RowFold wants to tell you: records you watch changed, you were added to a workspace, an automation failed. Click any item to jump straight to its subject; Mark all read clears the badge. New items arrive live — no refresh. Watch a record Open any record (page or peek drawer) and press Watch. Every change lands in your bell, and optionally your inbox — tick email me changes. Watches are personal: nobody sees what you watch. Watchpoints: tell me when a number crosses A watchpoint is a saved number and a threshold — “overdue invoices above ten”, “pipeline under 50,000” — checked every hour, that notifies you when the number crosses the line. You create one from the Watch button on any view's toolbar, so what gets watched is exactly what you were looking at: the view's own filters become the watchpoint's, and the number is either the record count or the sum of a numeric column. It fires on the crossing, not while the number stays there. An hourly “still above ten” for a fortnight is how people learn to ignore alerts, so a watchpoint that has already fired stays quiet until the number comes back and crosses again. Creating one while you are already past the threshold arms it silently and says so, rather than firing a stale alarm at you. A watchpoint belongs to you, like a digest: your permissions decide the number, two people watching the same thing are two separate alerts, and if you leave the workspace yours go quiet. Manage them from My Work. Live sync When a teammate changes a record you're looking at, your grid updates in place within a moment — and only with data you are allowed to see; RowFold notifies your browser that something changed and your browser refetches through the normal permission checks. Creations and deletions show a small refresh pill instead of yanking the page around. Tips • Watching pairs well with private tables: watch the handful of records you own and let the rest be quiet.
