Notification Icon

About the Notification Icon

Notification Icon is a component that can be placed anywhere in the Document Object Model (DOM). This component syncs to your AutoQL data and displays a badge when it detects new notifications. It would typically be placed in the main header menu within your application.

Setting Up the Notification Icon

The following sections in this document contain detailed information about how to customize the properties of this widget.

themeConfig Option

Key	Value Type	Default

accentColor	String	light theme: '#28a8e0', dark theme: '#525252'
fontFamily	String	'sans-serif'

theme: Currently there are two options: light theme and dark theme. In addition to changing the overall theme, you can also change the accent color using the accentColor option.

accentColor: Primary accent color used for buttons, link, or hover effects. Note that the visualization (table and chart) colors will not be affected here.

fontFamily: Customize the font family to the provided font wherever possible. Accepts any CSS font family that is available, and if none is provided, will default to Sans-Serif.

chartColors: Array of color options for the chart visualization themes, starting with the most primary. You can pass any valid CSS color format in here, however it is recommended that the color is opaque (ex. "#26A7E9", "rgb(111, 227, 142)", or "red"). Charts will always apply the colors in order from first to last. If the visualization requires more colors than provided, all colors will be used and then repeated in order.
