# Notification settings API

>**Note:** This feature was [introduced][ce-5632] in GitLab 8.12.

**Valid notification levels**

The notification levels are defined in the `NotificationSetting.level` model enumeration. Currently, these levels are recognized:

```
disabled
participating
watch
global
mention
custom
```

If the `custom` level is used, specific email events can be controlled. Notification email events are defined in the `NotificationSetting::EMAIL_EVENTS` model variable. Currently, these events are recognized:

```
new_note
new_issue
reopen_issue
close_issue
reassign_issue
new_merge_request
reopen_merge_request
close_merge_request
reassign_merge_request
merge_merge_request
failed_pipeline
success_pipeline
```
