# Delivery Mode for Pop-ups

## Introduction

Delivery Mode defines the way Pop-ups are communicated and displayed to end users. Three methods exist for displaying Pop-ups. While [configuring the Pop-up](/hub/docs/create-a-pop-up), content authors define the delivery mode based on the significance of the communication type.

### Types of Delivery Mode

- Notifications: The Pop-up displays as a system notification. Access this Pop-up either by clicking the system notification you see or through the notification stack from the Panel. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/2024-09-30_15-50-17 copy.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T09%3A35%3A43Z&se=2026-11-12T10%3A35%3A43Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=NbT0FRsv3UGNF5rlUbfmOJdKbJr6LpxzD063KKbGUm8%3D)
- Pop-Up: The pop-up displays on the main desktop screen and grays out minimized applications or tabs (if open). The Pop-up appears even in full-screen mode. Once you exit full-screen, the Pop-up will be shown on the main screen. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/2024-09-30_16-06-40.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T09%3A35%3A43Z&se=2026-11-12T10%3A35%3A43Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=NbT0FRsv3UGNF5rlUbfmOJdKbJr6LpxzD063KKbGUm8%3D)
- Pop-up Critical: The Pop-up displays on the main desktop screen and grays out minimized applications or tabs (if open). In full-screen mode, the system redirects to the main desktop screen where the Pop-up is displayed. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/critical.gif?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T09%3A35%3A43Z&se=2026-11-12T10%3A35%3A43Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=NbT0FRsv3UGNF5rlUbfmOJdKbJr6LpxzD063KKbGUm8%3D)
