[Amanda Cofsky] Depending on how active people in your company are using Power BI,
there could be a lot going on.
You could have multiple dashboards,
and dashboards being shared with you.
You could have new dashboards
being added to groups that you're a part of.
And it could be really hard to
keep track of all of this that's going on.
And so you can use the notifications center
in Power BI to always know
what's happened since you last logged in.
So when you log into Power BI,
if something new has happened,
you'll see a little icon up here
near the notification center
to tell you how many things
have happened since you left.
So in my case, I've had one new notification.
So when I click on it,
I'll be able to see
that since I last logged in, Will
has shared a dashboard with me.
You can additionally see previous
notifications that you have not
actually dismissed, so I had previously
logged in and I had seen this notification
that a dashboard was added to a group
that I've been part of, but I
wanted to save that for later.
Because at the time, I was logged into
Power BI for a very specific purpose.
I wanted to do something and get out.
But I wanted to remember that this
happened so I could go look at it.
So I didn't choose to dismiss the notification.
Now that I've seen it,
I can go ahead and hit the little X,
and I'll no longer see that notification
in my notification pane.
Another thing you can do from
the notification pane is
you can jump directly to the dashboard
that was either shared or added to your group.
So when I click in that link, I'll be
jumped directly to this dashboard.
This notification center is shared between
all of your devices, so if you use Power BI
both in the web and on your mobile device,
the notification center is shared between it.
So no matter if you're at your desk or on the go,
you'll be able to see your notifications.
So this notification center is a really great way
for you to always know what's going on
in Power BI every single time you log in.
