Notifications#
i-doit up shows two kinds of notifications: short toast messages that appear in the bottom-left corner after actions, and the History feed that records changes per object and per tenant.
This page covers toasts. For the History feed see the History section in Top bar reference and Object Tools.
Toast anatomy#
Every toast appears in the bottom-left corner of the page. A toast has:
- a colored icon, usually a green check mark for success, a red triangle for errors;
- a headline in bold;
- an optional body with details;
- optional action buttons that perform a follow-up action;
- a × close button to dismiss it.
Toasts auto-dismiss after a few seconds; click the × to dismiss earlier.
Catalogue#
The most common toasts you will see, with the action that triggers them.
Object created#
| Triggered by | Headline | Body |
|---|---|---|
| New object + in any Finder-style table | New object has been created. | A new object has been created successfully. |
The toast carries two follow-up buttons:
- Filter: applies a temporary filter to show only the just-created object(s).
- Open: navigates straight to the object's detail page. (Only shown when one object was created.)
Objects deleted#
| Triggered by | Headline |
|---|---|
| Edit ▸ Delete (n) in the Finder | N objects were deleted. |
The body is empty; the toast disappears automatically.
Entry created#
| Triggered by | Headline |
|---|---|
| Saving a new entry in a multi-value category, for example Network definition on a Network object, or a new IP address on the IP addresses tab | Entry created |
IP address assigned#
| Triggered by | Headline | Body |
|---|---|---|
| Saving the Edit IP address dialog with an Object and a Configuration | IP address {address} assigned successfully | IP address {address} was assigned to object {object name} successfully |
Validation error in a modal#
| Triggered by | Banner |
|---|---|
| Saving a modal with required fields blank | An error occurred, please check the marked fields |
This message is shown as a red banner inside the modal rather than as a bottom-left toast.
Behavior notes#
- Multiple toasts stack vertically; older ones fade out first.
- Action buttons inside a toast remain clickable until the toast is dismissed or auto-fades.
- Errors and warnings stay on screen until you dismiss them with the ×.
