Notifications

Introduction

The notification entity holds information about which user should have received a notification and what contents this notification has. Also, the seen and read information for a notification is stored in this table.

Notifications are related to many different entities as polymorphic relations which intratool will resolve by given keys.

An internal notification basically consists of:

  • Type
  • Target entity
  • Notifiable entity

to resolve which type of information should be dispatched to whom.
