You can configure notifications based on the following criteria:

* **Priority** - Choose which ticket priority levels trigger notifications: **Low**, **Medium**, **High**, or **Urgent**.

* **Events** - Select which ticket events you want to be notified about, such as when a ticket is created, assigned, updated, or closed.
* **Types** - Filter notifications by ticket type, including **Service Requests**, **Customer Support**, or **Other**.
* **Notify me by** - Choose how you want to receive notifications. Available options include **Email**, **SMS**, and **Call**. You can enable one or multiple methods depending on how you prefer to be alerted.

By fine-tuning these options, you can ensure you receive timely updates for critical tickets while avoiding notification overload from lower-priority activity.
