I am working on a MVC-4 C# web Application. The Application is connected with two mobile apps built in Ionic framework.
Currently i am in need to send push Notification's from my web application to mobile app's and also i want to show notifications on web app if any change happens in database.
I am using SQL Server 2008 as database.
I have searched alo't about this and found Signal-R and SQL Dependency as one option to monitor database and send notification to web application,but Signal-R cant send notifications to mobile app's.
I am looking for something that i can use for both purpose.
I heard a bit about Firebug ,if it could serve my purpose kindly guide me a bit about that..
Any Suggestion Regarding this would be highly appreciated.

I'd like to try the push notification feature of Microsoft App Center.
I'm logged in the app center portal. I created an app. When I click on the app, I see a bunch of buttons in the left pane (Diagnostics, Analysis, Settings) but there is no Push button like I normally see in tutorials, and videos.
Anyone know what I'm missing ? Is it a subscription issue ?
thanks
I just had the same issue and got confused, since we have other apps that still
have the 'Push' button on the left side. Upon further inspection i found this notice on our existing apps. The notice links to this url
Apparently they are shutting down push notification support on Appcenter and urges you to use Azure Notification Hubs instead.
This kinda sucks, since we build multiple apps already with Appcenter push support, and they have not supplied us with a migration guide (yet)
I am building a React Native application for calling using RingCentral APIs.First of all I tried using the webphone RTC via web browser: https://github.com/ringcentral/ringcentral-web-phone. It works perfectly fine in web browsers. But the thing I need is to call via react-native application I am building.
I tried calling via RingCentral using 'ring out call' POST API and 'call control- make callout' post api(beta version).But the problem i am facing is when i integrate these apis to react-native applications : To have a two way communication I need to be online in the web phone .Then when i call from react native it goes to the web phone first.And then when I dial 'answer' it redirects to the number i want to call to.Then only I can have a two-way communication.
So, what do I do if I want to directly call via react-native application to the recipient directly?
P.s. If I am not online in the web phone from browser the call automatically goes to the voicemail.
So hard to understand your question from the title and the detailed description.
I guessed that you want to implement a functional phone using react native where you want to use the RingCentral WebRTC SDK to handle incoming and outgoing phone calls.
First of all, please mind the browser compatibility supported by the WebPhone SDK. Secondly, it is not trivial and I cannot support you on the react-native part. However, RingCentral provides an easy way to embed a RingCentral embeddable phone to any webpage and that app is an open source project. You can use the embeddable as such or clone the project and learn from the code or modify it to meet your requirements.

I need to implement push notification to our Android App using Xamarin. Here is the process. We have web version which used by the Manager. The Manager creates and assign job to the driver. The App version is used by the Driver where it shows the list of jobs and processes of job until its complete. So, when the Manager assigned the Job to the Driver in the Web version, it will then notified to the Driver in the App version that "new job is assigned". Basically, both the web and app uses same database then we created an api(REST API in MVC C#) to connect and get data from the db to be used in the mobile app.
Can someone recommend to me which Push notification plugin(a plugin or nuget) should I use to do this? Currently, I have set up Push Notifications through App center & Firebase but not sure how this work.
Thank you.

I would suggest you use Firebase for mobile push notifications for Android as it is a product by Google, and was made for mobile applications. For push notifications, you will be using Firebase Cloud Messaging also known as FCM. See to it that you are well versed on how it works before you start coding anything read the documents it answers most of your questions there itself.

For this, you will have to check on how to work with Firebase using Rest-API. Once you configure the Rest-API and then apply your business logic to it things will be quite easier than you might have imagined.

My recommendation is quite simple, Do not use any sort of a firebase push notifications plugin!. I have had a very bad past with plugins and ever since then I never recommend fellow developers to use plugins until it is a well-maintained one. I would rather ask you to simply configure Firebase on the basis of the guides that are available online. Like the following Xamarin.Android guide for FCM. It is detailed contains everything that you are looking for and what else I would suggest is you check firebase related answers on SO and you will find that almost everything that is not available in docs is covered around here and in detail. Like the following:
How to handle Firebase Notification i.e. Notification Messages and Data Messages
Push Notification in android with firebase get token
How to send device to device messages using Firebase Cloud Messaging?
Receive push notifications on one android app from two Firebase projects
I've tried to following the instructions
Configuring push services for Android devices
However, the steps mention 'Click Push Notifications on the left-side navigation' but they don't exist...
Once you've created a Google API project with GCM enabled, you need to update your application's settings page in Dashboard with the API key and sender ID you generated.
To configure Arrow for push notifications using Dashboard:
Open Dashboard and select your application from the Apps drop-down menu.
Click Push Notifications on the left-side navigation <-- MISSING.
Select the Android Push tab.
Enter the server key in the GCM API Key field and the GCM sender ID in the GCM Sender ID field.
Here's a screenshot to show what's listed...
If I look under Arrow (where I suspect it might be expecting to be listed) that's empty (I'm not using Arrow - I thought it was an alternative UI using declarative XML)...
I've checked the subscription that I'm on (Indie) and it shows that I should have the ability to send up to 1 million push notifications for free..
Does anyone know how I can associate the Appcelerator Titanium project to the GCM server key??
Also, when I looked in Googles developer console, my application (which is live on their app store) wasn't listed, so I've created a new application called 'Gcm'. The Appcelerator Titanium seemed to confirm that I needed to 'create' the application, I was just too worried to call it the same name as the live application. How does the 'Google Developer Console' Application relate to the 'Google Play' application?! - if at all?
UPDATE
I've just discovered in TiApp.xml that I can enable some 'Cloud' settings and this has unlocked the 'Push' menu - so I think all is good now, could someone confirm that this is the right thing to do and answer my related question about Google play applications v google developer console applications?
Update 2
I started to get this error
[ERROR] : GooglePlayServicesUtil: The Google Play services resources
were not found. Check your project configuration to ensure that the
resources are included.
[INFO] : CloudPush.retrieveDeviceToken error: INVALID_SENDER
I'm simply calling this to try and register for Android push notifications ...
CloudPush.retrieveDeviceToken({
success : function(e) {
console.info("CloudPush.retrieveDeviceToken success");
},
error : function(e) {
console.info("CloudPush.retrieveDeviceToken error:"+e.error);
}
});
I have tried with and without the ti.cloud module (I think it got added when I clicked the 'Enable Services' button which meant that I could see the 'Push Notifications' tab, but it seems to still be listed whether the ti.cloud module is elected or not)..
Before..
Q - How to stop the Google Play error and retrieve the device token (oddly I was getting the token before enable services.
Q - Is ti.cloud used to receive the push notification, or is ti.cloudpush sufficient for this?
Thanks for the detailed question :) Let me go into some of the things you mention and clarify what I can.
If I look under Arrow (where I suspect it might be expecting to be listed) that's empty
As you later found out you have to enable platform services for your app which will create an ArrowDB app with the same name as your app. This app will have the Push Notifications in the sidebar to configure. I've updated the guide's wordings to make clear we mean the ArrowDB app, not the Titanium app.
(I'm not using Arrow - I thought it was an alternative UI using declarative XML)...
Don't confuse Arrow with Alloy - which is the MVC framework for Titanium which indeed uses XML.
How does the 'Google Developer Console' Application relate to the 'Google Play' application?! - if at all?
It doesn't. You can even have multiple apps share the same GCM sender.
[ERROR] : GooglePlayServicesUtil: The Google Play services resources were not found.
What did you use to test? A Genymotion emulator without Google Apps installed perhaps? You'll need that.
Is ti.cloud used to receive the push notification, or is ti.cloudpush sufficient for this?
ti.cloud is the module to communicate with ArrowDB, subscribe to channels etcetera. On Android you need ti.cloudpush (or as #Shawn mentioned another module) to retrieve the device token where on iOS you can use a Ti. API for that. Follow this guide for all steps.
You can ignore the Google Play Service error, but it seems your GCM Sender ID and/or API Key is wrong. Read through the tutorial and make sure you put down the right ones.
If you are using Appcelerator Cloud Service to send push notifications, you need ti.cloud to register the devices.
To get the device token and to receive push notifications, you use ti.cloudpush. There are other modules that you can use instead of ti.cloudpush.
I have a iOS developer. He is writing he iPhone app.
I am writing the web service that is used by the iPhone app.
The mobile app has many screens (or views what do you call it?)
What response does my web service need to respond with so that the mobile app knows what screen to open. There are many screens, and different screen input parameters.
Note: im not an objective-c developer. So I dont know what my developer wants my web service to respond with.
ASK YOUR DEVELOPER! (and they're called views). Someone developing a web service shouldn't be worried about views, that's definitely a dev issue
It depends on requirement you don't need to do anything with screens(views). This depends on Requirement of the project. What data has o be displayed for a specific screen you need to create functions for that only. The developer will call your web service function and your web service will return response in format of json(I prefer because it's lightweight and fast) or XML. The ios developer will parse the response and display the data on screen. Now it's up to him how he uses your web services. For example assume there is login screen so iphone app will send you user name and password your web service validate the credential and send response as success or failure. I hope you understand.
