Creating Alerts on data pages

[Alejandro]

I created a communication system for construction job sites and I want to include in the landing page an alert icon that can tell me any time I am sent a notification. 

I am already using the email option after a communication is created where an email is sent to both parties as an alert. But you need to check your email instead of visualizing an alert on the caspio app. I am talking like a shopping cart notification.

This is not a natural caspio feature and I would like to know how to do it. Not a technical person.

Any help would be appreciated.

Shopping Cart notification means the number of emails/items right? This is actually quite a complex feature to apply even for a technical person as it involves API, and if you want it to be real time, as in in the instant a communication is created, it will update, it will use A LOT of API calls. A workaround is using a Calculated Value use SELECT statement based on your criteria and count the number of communications created

then design it how you like, no 'alerts' though
