2. Select the **Service** dropdown and then select the service for which you want to view notifications.
3. Select the **Severity** dropdown and then select the severity of the notifications that you want to view.

## Viewing and accessing email notifications

When an event that you are subscribed to takes place, an email notification is generated and sent to the email address that you used to create your account. To access the email notifications, check out the inbox of the email address where you know the notifications will be sent.

You can get the following information from the email:

* Read general information about the event that took place.
* Navigate to the corresponding service and tenant where the event took place.

2. Change the view from **My Notification** to **Manage Notification**.
3. Select the **Edit** ![edit](https://dev-assets.cms.uipath.com/assets/images/integration-service/integration-service-edit-367221-e4ee379b.webp) icon inline with the **Default** user group.
4. Go to a service tab (**Actions**, for example), and choose the default events all users should be subscribed to. Also choose to hide or unhide some or all events for users in the organization.
   1. Select the visible ![visible](https://dev-assets.cms.uipath.com/assets/images/integration-service/integration-service-visible-371692-83b19ae0.webp) icon next to an event to hide or unhide it from the users in the external group.
   2. Select the checkboxes under **Mandatory**. This subscribes users to an event, without the possibility of changing this setting.
   3. Select the checkboxes under Automation Suite and **Email** to choose the default events the users are subscribed to.
