# Notifications

The Govern app offers notifications to keep you informed of events from your data consumers, data owners, and data governors. These notifications provide timely updates on policy changes and actions occurring within the Govern app. The following notification options are available:

* **Email notifications**: These notifications are available to send tri-daily notifications about events within the Govern app. See the guide to [Enable email notifications](/SaaS/govern/detect-your-data/notifications/how-to-guides/enable-email-notifications.md).
* **Webhooks**: These notifications can be scoped to send webhooks when specific actions happen within the Govern app. See the guide to [Create a webhook](/SaaS/govern/detect-your-data/notifications/how-to-guides/create-a-webhook.md).
* [**Monitors**](/SaaS/govern/detect-your-data/notifications/reference-guides/index.md): These notifications can be configured to monitor for specific user actions within thresholds of acceptability and send specific webhooks when those actions occur past the thresholds. See the guide to [Manage a monitor](/SaaS/govern/detect-your-data/notifications/how-to-guides/create-monitor.md).
* **In-app notifications**: These notifications can be found in the **Activities icon** in the UI or through the [`/activity` endpoint](/SaaS/developer-guides/api-intro/immuta-v1-api/configure-your-instance-of-immuta/activity.md).

The Request app also offers [several types of notifications for activity within the Request app](/SaaS/request/notifications.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://documentation.immuta.com/SaaS/govern/detect-your-data/notifications.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
