# Getting Started with Place Notifications

Introduction to Place Alerts 

Place Alerts lets you set up email notifications when a vehicle enters or exits specific locations. This article will guide you through the creation of a Place notification, helping you maximise efficiency and reduce manual monitoring.

#### Getting Started with Place Notifications

**Step 1: Access the Places Feature**

1. Log in to the Platform:
   * Start by logging into your Sky Ledge account.
2. Navigate to Places:
   * Go to the "Places" tab from the map bar at the top of the screen.

**Step 2: Create a New Rule**

1. Select a Place:

   * Find and click on the place you want to monitor. This will open the place details action bar at the bottom of the screen.

#### Understanding Rule Notifications

* **Email Alerts**:
  * Once a rule is set, you will receive an email alert when the selected vehicle enters or exits the specified place.
* **Rule Archiving**:
  * After the rule is triggered and the alert is sent, the rule will be `archived` automatically. This ensures your alert system remains clutter-free and efficient.

#### FAQs

**Q1**: Can I create multiple rules for the same place?&#x20;

*A1*: Yes, you can create multiple rules for the same place, but each rule can only monitor one vehicle in the first iteration.

**Q2**: How do I know if a rule has been triggered?&#x20;

*A2*: You will receive an email alert when the rule is triggered, and it will be archived immediately after.

**Q3**: Can I edit a rule after creating it?&#x20;

*A3*: Currently, rules cannot be edited once created. You will need to create a new rule if changes are needed.

**Q4**: What if I need alerts for more than one vehicle?&#x20;

*A4*: At this stage, each rule can monitor only one vehicle. We plan to add multi-vehicle support in future updates.
