# Check the User Web Push Permission

> Suggested reading: [Receiving no Web Push Notifications](/v1/docs/receiving-no-web-push-notifications)

If you want to debug any issues with receiving [Web Push notifications](/docs/types-of-web-push-notifications), you should also check whether you have allowed them.

When you opt in to notifications, the **insUserPermissionGranted** key will be set to ***true***.

1. Click right > **Inspect** on your website and open the browser console.
2. Go to **Application** > **Local Storage** to see the value of **insUserPermissionGranted**.
3. If the value shows the state as **true**, you have enabled Web Push notifications.
