Notification match

I’m currently developing an application where I have a list of products with the following criteria: Price, Size, Color, and Location. Simultaneously, I have a list of requests with the same criteria. I would like the user (the store) to receive notifications when a product matches a request (basically, when the criteria of the product align with the criteria of the request, the store is notified). I’m not sure if you see what I mean. The application is intended for professionals who have products and requests. It’s a kind of companion that matches your products with your customers.
Does it possible with Adalo?

It sounds like it is totally possible with Adalo. It could get a little complex if you are hosting transactions and shopping carts. It’s doable… but, maybe on the challenging side.

You may want to look at some dating / match-making apps to get some ideas for design. Or, wanted ads. I would start without transactions. Just matching. Then, test it.

I’m building something similar to the “request” side of what you described. I am slightly better than a newbie - and it’s challenging enough.

Yes, I will focus on the correspondence between products and requests at first. However, it seems that we can’t test the notifications live on Adalo!? Is it true?

Not sure. That MAY just be true for native apps. Not sure if it is true for webapps and native. Perhaps someone else can chime-in.

I will likely use a webhook or API for email notifications, rather than in-app notifications.
I can pass on that webhooks cannot send images to emails. Only API’s. Unless, of course someone has figured out a work-around.

Heads up, if you couldn’t tell already, there are lots of variables. Even if you just build a mobile phone only web app. Trying to build for multiple screen sizes + native + iOS + Android… will make your head explode if you’re new to this. Keep it simple.
