Confluence displays notifications collected from page watches, shares, mentions, and tasks. If your Confluence site is linked to a Jira application, like Jira Software or Jira Service Desk, you'll also see notifications from your Jira application.
The Confluence Cloud mobile app lets you get notifications wherever you are. Try it for iOS and Android, today.

View your notifications
To see your notifications, click the notifications icon
in the sidebar. From your notifications you can reply to comments, like a comment or page, watch a page, or open the relevant page or blog post.
Which notifications are included?
Notifications are added to the notifications dialog when someone does one of the following:
- Shares a page or blog post with you
- Mentions you in a page, blog post, comment or task
- Comments on a page or blog post that you're watching
- Likes a page or blog post that you're watching
The notifications dialog does not show notifications triggered because you're watching a space. Only watches on pages and blog posts are relevant here.
The notification appears as "read" if you've already viewed the page or blog post.
If your Confluence site is linked to a Jira application, you'll also see the following Jira notifications:
- Comments on issues that you're watching
- Mentions
- Shares of issues, filters, and searches
