# GET /v1/notifications

> The newest notifications of the person who made the key, as the bell shows them.

Markdown twin of https://panlytics.net/developers/api/notifications-list (last updated 2026-10-25). Every page of the Panlytics developer docs is listed at https://panlytics.net/developers/llms.txt, and all of them are in one file at https://panlytics.net/developers/llms-full.txt. The site guide is https://panlytics.net/llms.txt.

## What it does

Only news about the shops the key reaches. The notice that an AI signed in stays unread until the person reads it in the app.

## Who may call it

Any live key may call it. It reads only what the key's maker may already see about themselves.

## Errors

A refusal is JSON with a `code`, a sentence in `error`, and a `requestId` when the fault is ours. Read the code, not the sentence. Every code is listed on [Errors](https://panlytics.net/developers/security/errors).

| Status | Code | When | What to do |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 401 | `api.key_missing` | The call had no Authorization header. | Send the key in the Authorization header as Bearer, then call again. |
| 401 | `api.key_refused` | The key is wrong, revoked, past its end, or its maker or company no longer allows it (developer mode off, the maker removed or switched off, or the maker's role lost the developer ability). | Ask the person who gave you the key to make a new one. |
| 401 | `api.wrong_key_kind` | This key does not open these endpoints. | Use the key these endpoints were made for, or ask the person who gave you the key. |
| 403 | `refused` | The key's maker may not do this here: their role lacks the ability, or the shop or category is outside their reach. | Ask the CEO for a role that allows it, or call it for a shop or category the role reaches. |
| 403 | `auth.not_fresh` | This step needs you to prove it is you. | Confirm your password or passkey, then try again. |
| 429 | `api.rate_limited` | The key made more than 120 calls in this minute. Wait the seconds in Retry-After. | Wait the seconds in Retry-After, then call again. |
| 500 | `server` | Something failed on our side. The answer carries a requestId to quote. | Try again in a minute; if it keeps happening, report it. |
| 503 | `developer.unavailable` | API keys are not set up on this deployment yet. | Report it, and we will switch them on. |
