The users will get the alert notification when multiple users are working on the same dashboard. The alert message will pop-up while one of them would like to save the updates on the same dashboard.&#x20;

The user who gets the Alert Notification has two choices:

<details>

<summary>Accept the Alert</summary>

If the user accepts the Alert notification, then his dashboard gets closed and it gets reopened displaying the updates saved by another user.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Deny the Alert</summary>

If the user denies the Alert notification, then he can continue to work on the same dashboard and his updates will overwrite the updates of the another user.

</details>

Please check out the following scenario to understand how the User Alert Notification functionality works.

* A dashboard is shared to multiple users.

* If more than one users are working parallelly on the same dashboard and one of the users i.e., User-A saves the dashboard to save the updates added by him in the dashboard. A notification message appears and all the updates committed by the User-A gets saved.&#x20;

* All the other users (i.e., User-B and User-C) who are working still on the same dashboard will receive an alert notification as displayed in the below-given image.&#x20;
* They can either accept it by clicking the ***Yes*** option or deny it by using the ***Cancel*** option.

* If the User-B accepts the alert, then User-B's dashboard will get closed.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
*<mark style="color:green;">Please Note</mark>: The User-B can reopen it only with the updates provided by the User-A.*
{% endhint %}

* There is a User-C who has cancelled the alert option. So, User-C can continue the work on the same dashboard.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
*<mark style="color:green;">Please Note:</mark> If User-C saves the dashboard after updating it, that will overwrite the updates given by User-A in the same dashboard.*
