I’m wondering if there is anybody who is successfully using a service like Pushpad to send push notifications to their desktop users?
If there are, I wonder if you could share how you are managing this and perhaps share some tips.
I have created a workflow that triggers the notification through Pushpad and can see it via Pushpad, but cannot figure out how to get this to my users or me for that matter.
Hello @Chris_Jeal
I’m using Pushpad with one of my personal apps that I have explicitly created for my wife. And I trigger the service with a time-triggered Google Apps Script and a webhook workflow.
As you can see I haven’t any recipients which is where I think I am stuck at the moment.
I don’t know how to add my current users as recipients, any clues?
@Chris_Jeal
Your users need to install Pushpad app as well to their mobile devices. The installation will create a unique User ID for each installation and with those IDs you need to create recipients or recipient groups as per those IDs.
I’ll drill-down into this topic a little deeper later on, it is quite cumbersome (at least for me) to get this going, I think that this would be a great feature of Appsheet if they were to build something similar into their editor.
I’ll put a feature request out there and see what happens.
