We are developing a coaching app service. It uses two different apps (in the store): one for coaches and one for customers.
We want to be able to use push notifications on both apps but the quickblox panel only allows to upload one certificate.
How can we go about using these two apps at the same time with quickblox? Is it maybe possible for two quickblox apps to talk to each other (each one with its own apns certificate) and if so, how?
Thanks in advance
This is only possible on enterprise instances and this requires customisation.

Is it possible to use the WhatsApp business API to communicate with users and also allow them to forward content from WhatsApp directly to our application. For example enabling Web-hooks for different WhatsApp channels to receive the messages from those channels. If yes, can someone guide me how can we implement this feature? and how can we authorize those channels with our WA business account
Finding sources/documentation for developing needed feature
Whatsapp API allows you to Broadcast messages to Unlimited Users, automate notifications, integrate Chatbots, provide Live Chat on Multiple devices and many more functions. Install the WhatsApp Business API Client and then Install your API client. Once your client is working, you can update your application settings. Start using the client, Register your phone number with an API call to /account and send a test message with a call to /messages . let me know if u find this helpful.
Yes, it is possible. The WhatsApp Business Platform allows medium and large businesses to communicate with their customers at scale. Using their APIs, businesses can connect thousands of agents and bots to interact with customers programmatically and manually. Additionally, the APIs can be integrated with numerous backend systems, such as CRM and marketing platforms
Here is the link for the documentation: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/overview
Link for different types of webhooks:

There are multiple ways given in the documentation. But keep in mind, do read the documentation carefully, they have their updated and the previous version so use them as per your requirements.
I’m implementing a solution that will notify users in a scenario very similar to a chat.
I’ll be using SignalR and Azure Notifications Hub for the job.
There are two scenarios that I need to address:
Notifying users that are currently connected and using my app - either web or mobile
Notifying users who are NOT currently using the app
I think SignalR will work just fine for the first scenario which is fairly easy.
My question is handling the second scenario which will require Azure Notifications Hub.
In a typical chat app, though it’s not real-time, there’s little delay before an inactive user receives a notification for a new message he receives.
How do I “trigger” a process that will send a notification through Azure Notifications Hub?
I can think of two ways to handle this:
Figure out a way to keep a list of users who currently have an active connection to my app. These users can be notified through SignalR. So after each new message, I could trigger a notification process that will use Azure Notifications Hub for users who are NOT in the active users list i.e. those who are NOT actively connected to my app.
Another approach would be to assume no one is connected. I could create an Azure Functions app that runs every minute to check on messages that are NOT opened. It would then compile a list of users who need to be notified and call Azure Notifications Hub process to notify them.
I don’t want to reinvent the wheel and want to tap into the experience of those who’ve already implemented a solution like this.
I’m currently leaning towards the second approach. I’d appreciate your suggestions, especially on approaches that I haven’t thought of. Thanks!
I am developing an Intuit App Center app using the V3 SDK written in vb.net.
Is it possible to get/control the list of connected users that is listed in the Reports section of the Manage My Apps area in the Intuit Partner Platform? Specifically, the area where you view your connections and are able to disconnect users so you don't get charged for that connection.
I would like to be able to control that list from within my application for billing purposes. I have heard that it is possible to manipulate the list programmatically but I'm unsure how to do it.
This should definitely be do-able, but there's not a specific API for it.
There are really 3 components to tracking this information:
Have they EVER connected - you'll know this already because if they connected they will have gone through the OAuth process on your website and you'll have a token for them.
Are they connected NOW - you can test this by making an OAuth request to any of Intuit's services - if you get back a successful response, you know they are currently connected, vs. if you get back a 401 error you know the token is expired/no longer good.
Disconnecting them - you can choose to explicitly disconnect a user (and thus no longer get charged for their usage) by using the disconnect API call.
There is no billing API available.
You need to check it from the appcenter.

I understand that I can use iCloud to sync Calendar (I'm assuming this is iCal) between multiple devices/users.
I have a requirement to have a master calendar that can be shared between users and automatically sync between those users. All users must have the ability to add/update/delete entries. And since I will be testing this, I don't want to use my personal iCal, so I need another group iCal stored on iCloud for testing, etc.
Is this possible with iOS and objective-c? If so, which APIs would I be most interested in to accomplish this?
UPDATE: each change to the "master calendar" is synced by iCloud, assuming the user devices are "registered" with iCloud. I need ONE calendar stored in ONE iCloud account, available to all "registered" users/devices. The app is going to access that calendar for back-end processing. The changes the users make to the calendar will be processed by the app when it is running (app is running during business hours, users can make changes 24/7)
Calendars and events in iOS are accessed using the Event Kit Framework. The user will have to have set up their iCloud account and calendar access/sharing separately, I don't think you can do this from within a third-party app.
i've been looking around to find a simple library or a client/server sample code for implementing a messaging system between users of my IOS clients app and a REST server. I would need that each user has an incoming and sent messages view. This view would display the conversations grouped by user. For example, using a table view where each cell represent a thread between the 2 distinct users, selecting a user's conversation it would push a new view that would display all the messages between the two users.
I have to say that i didn't found much, this is a mix of libraries and front ends:
an XMPP objective-c library: https://github.com/robbiehanson/XMPPFramework, but i don't really want an IM behavior
Acani chat, https://github.com/acani/AcaniChat seems promising but waiting for the acani chat server, i could use the front end
another chat https://github.com/honcheng/iOS-nodechat
MailCore, an IMAP api for objective-c: https://github.com/mronge/mailcore . i would need to relay on a mail server, create emails for each user and ... too much!
too bad there isn't any iMessage API
dont want to send a SMS or an email
push notification it's not a must to start
maybe coding a simple REST service for publishing and retrieving messages to and from a user would be the best approach? i'm i missing something?
thanks!!
