Viewing recent notifications
Whenever your subscriptions trigger a notification, Brightspot adds the notification to the Notifications widget—in addition to sending the notification through the subscriptions’ delivery methods. You also receive notifications when one of your subscriptions fails to deliver a message, such as when an email server is down.

The counter in the header lists the number of unread notifications you have. After you open the Notifications widget, the counter resets to zero.
