How to Use Alert and Badge Blocks ​

Type: How-to | Audience: End-user | Goal: Add notification alerts and status badges

Alert Block ​

  1. Hover the gap between two rows and click the + button to add a row, then click an empty column and pick Alert in the Add block dialog.
  2. Click the new block to open its settings in the sidebar.

Setting the Variant ​

The variant controls the alert's visual style. The Variant card has two tabs:

Select tab (default): Pick a variant from the dropdown:

  • Default -- neutral style
  • Destructive -- red, for errors
  • Info -- blue, for informational messages
  • Success -- green, for confirmations
  • Warning -- yellow/amber, for caution

Data tab: Use the Data Picker to bind the variant to a data field. The field value must be one of: default, destructive, info, success, warning.

Title and Description ​

  • Title (Optional): Use the Data Picker to set the alert title. You can type static text or pick a dynamic value from your data source using resource.field syntax.
  • Description: Use the Data Picker to set the alert body text. Same static/dynamic options as title.
