User story

As an API owner, I want to be able to see notifications concerning the APIs I manage so that I can take necessary actions.

As an API consumer I want to be able to see notifications concerning the APIs I follow or use so that I can make changes to my applications or I'm aware of for example about my spending (monetization).

Goal

APInf is able to show a history of user related notifications on the UI, which can be discarded (marked as read) by the user. This feature is related to several other features: API changes (if users follows API), monetization, API monitoring etc.

Suggesting a "Follow" / "Watch" button on APIs. On clicking that button, consumers receives notification on any changed made to the API documentation, Metadata or change in API's health.

@Nazarah Definitely. This issue is related to the frontpage future enhancements, which include following API.
