# Get alerts when a vault needs you

> Receive Telegram and email alerts for deposit and withdrawal activity on vaults you manage.

Hedgin can message you about deposit and withdrawal activity on the vaults you manage. Alerts go to the vault's manager wallet only. Delegates do not receive them.

## Connect a channel

Open the bell in the manager console and choose **Delivery Settings**. Sign in with your manager wallet first.

* **Telegram:** select **Connect**. Telegram opens the Hedgin bot. Select **Start**. The link works once and expires after 10 minutes. To stop alerts from the chat, send `/alerts_off`.
* **Email:** enter your address and select **Connect**. Enter the 6-digit code from the email and select **Verify**. The code expires after 10 minutes. You can request a new code after the countdown ends. Five wrong codes cancel it.

Emails come from `notification@hedgin.xyz`. Each email has an unsubscribe link.

Select **Send test alert** to check that your channels work.

## Alerts and what to do

There are two switches, **Deposits** and **Withdrawals**. Both start on. A switch applies to Telegram and email.

| Switch | You get an alert when | What to do |
| - | - | - |
| Deposits | A depositor requests a deposit | Nothing. It settles at the next valuation. You can reject it from the console before then |
| Deposits | A deposit request is cancelled, settled or rejected | Nothing |
| Withdrawals | A depositor requests a withdrawal | Keep enough of the deposit token idle for the next valuation to pay it |
| Withdrawals | A withdrawal request is cancelled, paid or rejected | Nothing |
| Withdrawals | Queued withdrawals, priced at the last NAV, exceed the vault's idle balance | Swap or close positions so idle funds cover the payout |

Each alert shows the amount, the depositor's address for a single request, and a button to open the vault console. Requests settled in the same transaction arrive as one alert.

Hedgin checks every 5 minutes and sends each alert once. Activity older than 2 hours is not sent. If idle funds are still short in the next 4-hour epoch, you get one reminder for that epoch.

Valuation problems and guardian pauses are not sent by Telegram or email. They show in the bell.
