# Assigning notifications

Notifications are assigned to users so they receive updates for the assets that are relevant to them. By linking users to specific assets and assigning a notification role, you control which notifications they receive and for which assets or asset groups. In most cases, notification roles have already been created. This means that assigning notifications mainly consists of selecting the correct assets, selecting the correct users, and linking the appropriate notification role to them.

## View notifications

On the **Events** page, you can see which assets a user is receiving notifications for and how many notification assignments are linked to that user.

You can also check which users are receiving notifications for a specific asset.

Go to **Events**. Click the **folder icon** to view the users linked to a specific asset.

This makes it easier to verify whether notifications have been assigned correctly.
