Why Am I Not Receiving Alarm Notifications?
Learn how to troubleshoot missing alarm notifications in Enbase by verifying contact information, notification settings, asset assignments, and account permissions.
Overview
If you're not receiving alarm notifications from the Enbase Dashboard, there are several possible reasons. This article walks through a few basic checks before contacting Support.
If the issue cannot be resolved, our Support team can investigate your account and notification settings.
Before Contacting Support
Confirm Your Contact Information
In the Enbase Dashboard, click your user account in the upper-right corner of the page and select Profile.
Review your profile to verify that your contact information is accurate, including your:
- Email address
- Mobile phone number (if applicable)
If any of your information is incorrect or needs to be updated, submit a request to Compression Support so we can update your account.
Verify Notification Methods
Depending on your organization's configuration, notifications may be sent by:
- SMS/Text Message
- Push notifications
Make sure you're checking the appropriate notification method.
Check Your Email
If you receive notifications by email:
- Check your Spam or Junk folder.
- Verify emails from Detechtion are not being blocked by your organization's email filters.

Verify the Alarm Occurred
If the equipment did not generate an alarm, no notification will be sent.
You can review the Alarm History in the Enbase Dashboard to determine whether an alarm was recorded.
