# Notification Types

Notification engine can create several different notifications.

### Rule Based Notifications

These types of notifications mainly created at [rules](/rules-menu.md) menu by user to track and trace  deviations, anomalies for both about data and IoT infrastructure such as offline devices.

These notifications can be sent as text, email, voice email or webhooks or APIs.

&#x20;Please see [integrations ](/integrations.md)page for more detail.

These types of notifications can be created as a separate web service for enterprise users.

These types of notifications can be traced in [logs ](/logs.md)page too.

### Data Service Based Notifications

These type of notifications works mostly as a separate service and with AI models.

These notifications can be tracked like a rule based notifications and also asset fields table:

These type of notifications acts like a standard asset field so they can be used in any field related item in widgets or reporting.

Skysens AI agents also can create notifications or write directly in to asset fields. Please see [AI page](/ai.md) for more information.
