Portal Notifications

See your CommPeak Portal notifications from the bell icon in the top bar or on the Notifications page, filter them by category, and act on critical and warning alerts.

The CommPeak Portal notifies you about events on your account, such as a low or empty balance, failed payments, DID number renewals, suspended services, and finished reports. You can check them in two places: the bell icon in the top bar, for a quick look at what needs your attention, and the Notifications page, for the full list from the last 30 days.

Notification categories

Every notification belongs to one of six categories. On the Notifications page, the Category list shows how many notifications each category holds, and clicking a category shows only its notifications. The table describes each category.

CategoryWhat it covers
Billing & balanceLow or empty balance alerts, top-ups, failed payments, and recurring service fees
Numbers (DIDs)DID number renewals, suspensions, and releases
Voice & monitoringBlocked calls, Cloud PBX status, new SIP accounts, call record archives, caller ID rules, and rate changes
MessagingNumbers flagged as spam, Speech-to-Text transcriptions, and LookUp results
Account & securityAccount role changes and Terms of Service updates
SupportUpdates from CommPeak Support

In the bell icon panel, each notification shows a short form of its category name, such as Billing or Numbers.

Notification severity

Notifications that need your attention carry a severity label. The table describes each label.

LabelWhat it meansExample
CriticalA service is stopped or about to stop. Act as soon as possible.Your balance is empty, 2 numbers suspended
WarningSomething needs your attention soon, before it affects your service.Balance low: $4.20 left, 6 numbers renew on Nov 8

Review the list

The Notifications panel opens. The most urgent notifications are pinned under Needs action, and the rest follow under Earlier. Each notification shows its category, date, and severity label, and most have an action button, such as Add credit or Renew now, that takes you to the page where you resolve it.

The panel also includes these controls:

  • Mark all as read: marks every notification in the list as read.

Using the Notifications page

The Notifications page lists every notification from the last 30 days, grouped by day with the newest first. The page shows times in the time zone set in your profile, and notifications older than 30 days no longer appear on it.
