# Create Notification - Step by Step

1. **Type:**
   * First, choose the type of notification you want by selecting one of the three main categories (**Three available buttons** -> Email / Push Notification or Log Message).
2. **Name:**
   * Give a unique name to the notification. This name will be shown in the overview and should describe the purpose of the notification.
3. **To:**
   * Enter the recipient's email address. For push notifications, you might enter a device ID or another identifier here.
4. **Subject:**
   * This is the subject of the email or message. It should be short and clear to inform the recipient about the content.
5. **Message:**
   * This is where you write the actual content of the message. This text can include more detailed information or instructions.
6. **Attachment:**

   * You can optionally attach files to the email that the recipient will receive along with the message. This could be, for example, a log file.
   * **Active:** By checking this box, you ensure that the message will be used immediately after saving. If you uncheck this option, the message will be saved but not sent out actively.
