Alerts

Alerts are short messages about the status of Vonage Contact Center or your VCC Admin Portal account.

Click Alerts in the banner to view all alerts in the order of receipt—newest alerts appear at the top of the list. Some alerts have a More info link. Click this link for more information relating to the alert.

The number of alerts you have not dismissed appears on the alerts icon. To acknowledge, or dismiss, alerts, click the alert in the list. Until you have dismissed an alert, the alert appears in the list of alerts with pink dot on the right. When you have dismissed the alert, pink dot disappears.

You can receive four different types of alerts. The types are listed in the order of severity, highest severity first.

  • Danger
  • Warning
  • Information
  • Success

Higher severity alerts take priority over lower severity alerts; if you have more than one alert you have not dismissed, the most severe alert appears on the top of the alerts list. (If you have more than one alert with the highest severity, the most recent alert takes priority.) The dismissed alert is replaced with the next most severe alert.
