Say I have a custom database collection that is a schedule of events. When there's a change to the schedule, is it possible to have automatic push notifications saying there was a schedule change instead of manually entering a notification for each change?
Hi Mike,
There is no build in functionality to send push on collection change.
But you can:
Create server code that will emulate "create service".
In the end of this server code - it will send push notification about changes.
Use this server code instead of create service.
You can do the same with other services update/delete if you need.
Regards.
OK thanks Yurii
Would it be possible to send a push notification after a user creates an account for the first time?
Absolutely, and the same logic that Yurii mentioned also applies. I have a similar functionality, and the flow is something like:
1- create a server code called "userCreateAccount" (for example)
2- In this server code you'll get the user's info and create a new DB entry in the Users collection.
3- After creating the user is successful, you can send the Push Notification (or text message, or email) from within the same server code script.
Do you have an example?
