# Set Up Bells for Verkada Guest

[Verkada Guest](https://docs.verkada.com/docs/verkada-guest-overview.pdf) offers a bells feature that allows you to configure a Guest type that sends a notification without requiring the user go through a full check-in process. This is handy for use cases, such as a delivery driver dropping off a package.
