# Alerts — Examples in Use

## Toast

Go to component

The Toast component provides brief feedback about an operation through a message at the bottom of the screen. Toast is only used to display additional confirmation of an action, but never information that is vital to the user.

## Notification

Go to Notification component

Notification is primarily used for system and account notifications. The Success variant is used to show a confirmation of a task, or an update to the user's account, which the user needs to be made aware of. The Error variant should be used when there is a problem that requires the user's immediate attention such as an account issue or unsuccessful action.

  

## Modal

Go to Modal component

Modals are used to grab the user’s full attention and requires people to focus on a single task before continuing. It appears on top of the main content and temporarily disables all other page contents until it is dismissed by closing or an action.

### Modal as a prompt

The Modal can be used to display contextual or global information that the user should be made aware of directly.

### Modal for additional content

The Modal can be used to display additional information that the user is able to access if they are interested to learn more about a certain topic without having to leave the page.

## Banner

The Banner is used to promote offers temporarily. This component is not yet available, but will be added to Sky UI in the future.

## Inline Alert

The Inline Alert is a versatile UI component designed to display important messages, notifications, and feedback directly within the body of a page’s content.
