What arrives in Documents and General
Document and folder shares, removed access, group and role changes, persona notices, and where each one takes you.
Step 1
Something was shared with you
When someone gives you access to a folder or a document, it lands in Documents. Press the row and the folder opens in Documents, or the document opens on its own page.

Sam Lee shared the document "Pricing 2027.docx" with you

Step 2
Access was taken away
If someone removes your access, you are told in Documents too, so a folder never just disappears without a reason. The row stays as a record of the change.

Step 3
Groups
Groups are in General. Being added to a group, or taken out of one, changes what you can open, because folders and documents are often shared with a whole group. Press the row to open Groups under Organization.

Step 4
Your role
Role changes are in General too. You hear about it when an admin gives you a custom role, takes it away (you are then a Member), or changes what your role is allowed to do. Press the row to open Role Access under Organization and see the permissions.

Step 5
Persona notices
When a model one of your personas uses is retired, General tells you once which personas moved to its replacement. Open Personas to check them or pick another model.
GPT-5 was retired, so your persona "Contract reviewer" will use GPT-5.5 from now on. Open Personas to keep that or pick another model

Somewhere else
Hub and chat events have their own box, Chats & hubs. Things you did yourself never notify you; they are listed under Sent.
