Hi everyone! How do I create a notification feature? I need a screen where all the notifications received by the user will be displayed. For example: a new subscriber, a review rating, a comment on a review, an upcoming calendar event, etc. How do I create them? Do I have to unsubscribe from them myself? But I need them to be sent automatically to the user. For example, one user subscribes to another and immediately receives a notification about it. How can I make the notification react to the action and send it to the user automatically? Also, how can the user disable notifications for certain actions in the settings using the on/off toggle switch? How can I implement this? Please help, I need these features, but I don’t have the skills to figure it out…
Hey Olga! There is an actions trigger titled ‘Push Notification’, when you click it, it would add that as a trigger to occur.
Keep in mind, you need to publish the app to see the full capability.
I would do it by creating a collection called “Notifications” and adding relationships to intended collections, like “Users.” Create a notification for every action where you need it, for example, a new subscriber or a submitted rating, then display that notification to the intended user.
Also, in the “Users” collection, add a boolean (true/false) property called “Disable Notifications.” The “Create Notification” action should only happen if “Disable Notifications” is false. You can also add push notifications alongside this to inform them outside the app. These steps are for in-app use.

Thank you and have a great day!
