Notifications

Notifications is a sidebar item with a bell icon. When errors have occurred or background tasks are running, a badge shows the number of unread notifications. Click it to open the notification log.

The notification log serves two purposes:

• It is a record of errors that occurred during your session – failed API requests, background task errors, save failures, or browser-level errors.
• It tracks the progress of long-running background tasks – such as imports and exports, generating reports, OCR text recognition, database upgrades, deleting many objects, and search index rebuilds – showing their state (e.g. pending, started, in progress) and notifying you when they complete or fail.

Each entry shows a short message, the source (Network, Task, Save, or Browser), and a timestamp. Finished tasks read "Task completed" or "Task failed".

Some notifications include structured detail, such as the error message of a failed task. Clicking such an entry opens a dialog with a breakdown of the error data and a Copy JSON button. This is useful when reporting a bug, as the JSON contains the exact error information from the server.

Use Clear All to dismiss all notifications.

Tasks that change the whole tree, such as an import, a restore, deleting all objects, or rebuilding the search index, cannot run at the same time. If you start one while another is running, a message says that another task is already running on this tree, and the running task is shown with its progress.

Note

Notifications are stored in memory only and are cleared when you reload the page.
