I want to show notifications in a Desktop Application I built, is there anyway I can get the text that is parsed for the Notification Tab.

Example:
Member1 mentioned you in a topic: Invite Only Stuff

 

I can get notification data from the IPS API and by querying the database, how do I parse the notification data to get User Friendly text?
GET https://website.cm/community/api/core/members/{id}/notifications

I'm not sure I understand the question - you take the data provided in the REST API response and format it however you like.
