The in-app notifications feature can be used in your model-driven apps in order to send notifications to app users. The notifications will be stored in a "notification center" until they are dismissed or expired. By default, notifications expire in 14 days but the expiration date can be modified by a system administrator.
Good to know
In-app notifications give the user notifications within the model-driven app and these notifications can be seen when using the app. Other alternatives for notifying users are e.g. using form notifications (with JavaScript) and Power Automate Cloud Flows to send e-mails or using the Microsoft Teams connector to have messages in Teams. With Plugins you can use the InvalidPluginExecutionException in order to e.g. prevent saving a row as part of some business logic.
