# Live Notifications

As soon as a Raid is started and its status is [<mark style="color:green;">ACTIVE</mark>](/how-to-raid/active-inactive-raids.md#active-raid-now) a user who generates a ["Smash"](/raid-settings/main-target-smashes.md) by opening the tweet through the bot, will trigger a Live Notification (if turned ON in [settings](/raid-settings/live-stats-notifications.md)):

This notification will include the following information:

* Direct link to the ongoing raid
* Telegram username of interacting user
* counter for targets \
  (achieved / target)

Live Raid stats can be toggled ON or OFF. This setting can be changed on the fly and affects and ongoing raid immediately. Check ["Live Stats Notification"](/raid-settings/live-stats-notifications.md) in Raid Settings for more information.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Please note, that the bot automatically deletes a Live Notification a few seconds after a new notification was generated and dropped. If there are many interactions simultanuesly it combines those interactions in one message.\
\
So, if people do not see their "Smash" Interaction message being displayed by the bot, they might have been too slow with hopping back from X to your chat to see it before the bot deleted it.
{% endhint %}
