Notification Channels
Orbita sends notifications in three ways: inside the system, by email, and via Telegram.
In-app notifications
The bell icon 🔔 in the top bar shows unread notifications. Click it to see a list of recent events.
Notifications appear instantly — there's no need to refresh the page.
Email notifications
Emails are sent automatically when:
- You're assigned as the agent on a record or task
- The status of a record you're involved with changes
- Someone adds information to a record you're subscribed to
- An approval is decided (approved / rejected)
The text of email notifications is configured by the administrator — see Notification Templates.
Turn email on / off
Profile → Notifications → Email Notifications — an on/off toggle.
Telegram notifications
Telegram is convenient for getting alerts straight in your messenger.
How to connect Telegram
- Go to Profile → Notifications
- Find the Telegram section
- Click the bot's name (for example,
@OrbitaBot) — Telegram will open - Click Start in the chat with the bot
- Return to Orbita and click Enable Telegram Notifications
- Click Test Notification — check that the message arrived
Disable Telegram
In the same section, turn off the Telegram Notifications toggle.
