+## Get the number of unread notifications {#unread-count}
+
+```http
+GET /api/v1/notifications/unread_count HTTP/1.1
+```
+
+Get the (capped) number of unread notifications for the current user.
+A notification is considered unread if it is more recent than the [notifications read marker]({{< relref "methods/markers" >}}).
+Because the count is dependant on the parameters, it is computed every time and is thus a relatively slow operation (although faster than getting the full corresponding notifications), therefore the number of returned notifications is capped.
+
+**Returns:** Hash with a single key of `count`\
+**OAuth:** User token + `read:notifications`\
+**Version history**:\
+4.3.0 - added
+
