# Worked Example: Notification Route

## Worked Example: Notification Route

Build a notification route when users need to know something happened but do not need to make a formal decision.

![Notification Center screen type.](https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F5ZqDXcVVffWUqEIZVhmn%2Fuploads%2Ft0riDnXUPQdCT09Sh4rI%2Fautomation-screen-notification-center-builder-20260705.png?alt=media\&token=68d920df-ee45-4a74-bda2-005513b32e8c)

*Notification Center screen type.*

### Scenario

When a high-priority record is created, notify the assigned owner and show the alert in Notification Center.

### Setup steps

1. Choose the source page.
2. Choose the trigger: record created, status changed, or launcher action.
3. Choose recipient: owner, assigned user, team, or role.
4. Write a message with the record title and expected next step.
5. Choose Notification Center as destination.
6. Add Workflow Status if the requester needs progress.
7. Validate.
8. Create a high-priority test record.
9. Preview as recipient and confirm the notification appears.

### Good message example

High-priority support request {{Title}} is assigned to you. Open the request and respond before {{Due date}}.

### Verification

The route is ready when the recipient sees the notification, understands what to do, opens the related item, and the source record shows the expected status or activity.
