Sending real-time notifications

When to use this

You're adding notification support to a PostHog feature — for example, notifying a user when they're mentioned in a comment, when an alert fires, or when an approval is requested.

The facade API

All notification creation goes through a single function. Import from the facade, not from internal modules:

from products.notifications.backend.facade.api import (
    create_notification,
    NotificationData,
    NotificationType,
    Priority,
    TargetType,
)
