 ## December 2024
 
+- **New**: [Model notifications](/docs/deploy/model-notifications) are now generally available in dbt Cloud. These notifications alert model owners through email about any issues encountered by models and tests as soon as they occur while running a job.
 - **New**: You can now use your [Azure OpenAI key](/docs/cloud/account-integrations?ai-integration=azure#ai-integrations) (available in beta) to use dbt Cloud features like [dbt Copilot](/docs/cloud/dbt-copilot) and [Ask dbt](/docs/cloud-integrations/snowflake-native-app) . Additionally, you can use your own [OpenAI API key](/docs/cloud/account-integrations?ai-integration=openai#ai-integrations) or use [dbt Labs-managed OpenAI](/docs/cloud/account-integrations?ai-integration=dbtlabs#ai-integrations) key. Refer to [AI integrations](/docs/cloud/account-integrations#ai-integrations) for more information.
 - **New**: The [`hard_deletes`](/reference/resource-configs/hard-deletes) config gives you more control on how to handle deleted rows from the source. Supported options are `ignore` (default), `invalidate` (replaces the legacy `invalidate_hard_deletes=true`), and `new_record`. Note that `new_record` will create a new metadata column in the snapshot table.

To view trust signal icons, go to dbt Explorer and click **Exposures** under the **Resource** tab. Refer to [Trust signal for resources](/docs/collaborate/explore-projects#trust-signals-for-resources) for more info.

-# Model notifications <Lifecycle status="beta" />
-
 Set up dbt to notify the appropriate model owners through email about issues as soon as they occur, while the job is still running. Model owners can specify which statuses to receive notifications about: 
 
 - `Success` and `Fails` for models
 - `Warning`, `Success`, and `Fails` for tests
 
 With model-level notifications, model owners can be the first ones to know about issues before anyone else (like the stakeholders). 
 
-:::info Beta feature
-
-This feature is currently available in [beta](/docs/dbt-versions/product-lifecycles#dbt-cloud) to a limited group of users and is gradually being rolled out. If you're in the beta, please contact the Support team at [email protected] for assistance or questions.

 To be timely and keep the number of notifications to a reasonable amount when multiple models or tests trigger them, dbt observes the following guidelines when notifying the owners:  
 
 - Send a notification to each unique owner/email during a job run about any models (with status of failure/success) or tests (with status of warning/failure/success). Each owner receives only one notification, the initial one.
-- Don't send any notifications about subsequent models or tests while a dbt job is still running.
-- At the end of a job run, each owner receives a notification, for each of the statuses they specified to be notified about, with a list of models and tests that have that status. 
+- No notifications sent about subsequent models or tests while a dbt job is still running.
+- Each owner/user who subscribes to notifications for one or more statuses (like failure, success, warning) will receive only _one_ email notification at the end of the job run.
+- The email includes a consolidated list of all models or tests that match the statuses the user subscribed to, instead of sending separate emails for each status.
 
 Create configuration YAML files in your project for dbt to send notifications about the status of your models and tests.
 
 ## Prerequisites
 - Your dbt Cloud administrator has [enabled the appropriate account setting](#enable-access-to-model-notifications) for you.
 - Your environment(s) must be on a [release track](/docs/dbt-versions/cloud-release-tracks) instead of a legacy dbt Core version.
