Hi SGL911, welcome to the Community, and thank you for reaching out to us! In order for the Side Key to be able to answer calls, it must be programmed to do so. This guide can walk you through everything regarding Side Key features and customization: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00084203/#:~:text=Navigate%20to%20and%20open%20Settings....

As for dismissing notifications and alerts, those can only be dismissed by swiping the notifications away from the Notification Shade, or by opening them in their respective apps.
