# Read the authenticated user notification badge count

`GET /member-notifications/badge`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://app.communicate.so/api/v1`
- URL: `https://app.communicate.so/api/v1/member-notifications/badge`
- Auth: one of:
  - HTTP bearer
  - API key in cookie `__Secure-better-auth.session_token`
  - API key in cookie `better-auth.session_token`

Use an explicit notifications:read or notifications:write account grant, or an application session. Devices belong to the authenticated user; workspace settings retain live membership and agent access. Member summaries require the live owner/admin role. Cookie writes still require a trusted Origin. Provider acceptance alone does not establish device delivery.

## Response `200`

Read the authenticated user notification badge count

- ReadNotificationBadgeResponse
  - `count` integer, required

## Other responses

- `401`: Missing, invalid, expired or revoked account credential or application session.
- `403`: Required account scope, live verified identity, membership or role permission is missing.
- `404`: Workspace or addressed resource is not visible to this member.
- `429`: Notification mutation or test rate limit exceeded.
- `500`: Unexpected server failure.
- `503`: Push is not configured or the provider is temporarily unavailable.
