What is it?

The "Send Notification" action let users send real-time notifications to other users right in the app.

These notifications can be used to alert users of important updates, reminders, or any other relevant information.

How it works

When you enable the action to the Record View, there is a menu of action buttons added to the bottom bar of the record view.

For this action, you pre-define who will receive the notifications and the message content.

When the "Send Notification" action is triggered, the app sends a notification that will appear as a push notification on the user's device or as an in-app notification, depending on their settings.

Add the action

  • From the Design tab, in the Tables section of the left sidebar, click on the Record view of any table.

  • Go to the Action section on the right sidebar, and click the + button.

  • Enter the name and icon for the action button, then click Configure...

  • Click + Then... and choose the Send notification.

Configure the action

Once the action is added, you'll need to configure

  • In Destination, choose users who will receive the notification. There are 2 options:

    • Everyone: Choose this option if you want the notification to be sent to all users of your app

    • Specified email address: If the notification is intended for specific users, choose this option and enter the account email of the recipients in the field To.

  • In the message field, write the content of the notification.

For the message, you can choose one of these options:

  • Power Fx: Get the message customized based on a condition set with the PowerFX formula.

  • Custom: Enter a specific message content.

  • Row Data: Choose a column that contains the suitable message specified for each record.

  • User: Get the information of current users as the input value for the message.

Require confirmation

Requiring a confirmation on the execution of the action can give users the chance to reconsider and avoid accidental taps.

You can also customize the confirmation message or use the default one.

Completion

In the settings of completion, you will configure

  • The message on succession to your users can be a way to communicate as well as engage with your users, elevating the user experience with your app.

  • Checkbox to enable the Confetti interaction like a celebration for the succession, making the experience more fun and rewarding.
