# Unread messages *** ### How to configure **`unread`**? A [procedure](/doc-plugins/plugin-glpi-network/unread.md) is available to help you install the plugin. *** ### What is the **`unread`** feature? Thanks to **`unread`** you will no longer miss a single message from GLPI. When new activity takes place on your instance, a will appear to inform you that a new unread notification is available. *** ### What is the difference between **`Per user helpdesk;shared central`** and **`Per user`** * **`Per user helpdesk;shared central`**: users with the self-service profile will be notified of tickets of which they are the requesters. The technicians, for their part, will share the notifications. If a notification is read, it will be marked read for all other technicians. * **`By user`**: each user will have access to their own notification queue including those of their group and their individual assignments. *** ### Can we have unread message behavior from one entity to another? Yes. This can be configured in **`administration`** > **`entities`**. Choose the entity that suits you and make the necessary settings in the **`unread`** tab. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
