Push Notification Setup for Azure Cloud

Wed Feb 25, 2015 6:56 pm

I have used and setup appery push notifications and it has to be the easiest thing to accomplish and works just fine.

I now have an app that uses Azure back end as the database. There are a number of articles on setting azure push notifications etc. Also articles on how the different devices (ios, android, windows) should register.

However, I am unable to figure out how to register the device. In Appery, it happens automatically when PUSH is enabled. Are there specific events or API in the appery platform that should be configured.

Are there phonegap / cordova api?

All examples from Azure talk about modifying .m files in xcode or similar files in eclipse. Do I need to export the project in xcode and then follow that process?

Thank you for your help.

Yes, you right - this is our backend service that makes it based on our own REST API integration.

You can make the similar your own REST API based on Azure platform.

I have the rest api built. However, not sure which event to place it under so it will register the app?

Also, can I then use the same localstorage variables to store the values?

Hello.

Device id can be found after device ready event under pushNotificationDeviceID local storage variable
Here is a doc about pushnotification
