# Enable Notifications
Prisma Cloud enables you to send notifications for new code and CI/CD security issues detected during periodic scans of your environments to messaging systems that you have integrated with Prisma Cloud. Supported messaging systems include Microsoft Teams, Slack, Splunk, JIRA, ServiceNow notification systems, as well as for webhooks.
VCS pull request scans do not initiate notifications, as PR scans already provide notifications within the PR itself in the form of comments. Nevertheless, if a PR is merged and introduces new findings on the default branch, these findings will generate alerts during the next periodic scan.
You must integrate your notification systems before enabling notifications for both code and CI/CD security notifications - see [Configure External Integrations on Prisma Cloud](https://github.com/PaloAltoNetworks/pc-docs-md/tree/main/enterprise-edition/content-collections/administration/configure-external-integrations-on-prisma-cloud/configure-external-integrations-on-prisma-cloud.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.prismacloud.io/content-collections/application-security/get-started/application-security-settings/enable-notifications.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
