Hey all,

I got a probably stupid question but I couldn't find any answer to it through Google.
I'm running a team site on a Sharepoint 2013 server and using a list to share new information with the users. Is there any ways to have a pop up notification message to the users when I'm adding a new info to the list? I set up an e-mail sending workflow which works perfectly but not all infos have the same priority and I want to have a pop up when I add a low priority info to the list.
Couldn't find any OOTB solutions so if you have any, please let me know

thanks in advance,
Phami

    there is no OTB solution which shows pop up notification to end user when new list item is added. Alerts may be used for notifying users in this case like you mentioned but they work with emails/SMS messages.

    Hi @Phami ,

    Thank you for the detailed description of this case. According to your case description, I completely understand the situation and your feelings.

    When I received the case, I searched a lot of documents did a lot of researches. And I feel regretful to inform you that there is no OOTB solutions to pop up a notification message to the user when a new message is added to the list.

    And I noticed that some end users have also proposed the same request, it is highly recommended that you can vote this ticket. Many features of our current products are designed and upgraded based on customers’ feedback. With requirements like this increase, the problem may well be released in the future. Thanks for your understanding.
