Hello all! I have a 12-entry form that I built in my app and I was wondering if it is possible to create a separate notification for each entry, so that each entry has its own notification separated by time?
Hi @Blue24 !
Do you like to trigger the notification while filling the form or later in any other screen?

I’d like the notification to be triggered both when the user submits the form for the first time, and when the user updates the form afterwards.
Hi @Blue24
Both things are possible.
1 - To be notified when submit is as easy as set an action in submit form button to send a notification.
2 - i am not sure which can be the smartest way, i need a bit of context in example who will be notified, who will be able to change info, workflow in general.
Kind regards

Hello @JareRamirez
I plan for each user to be notified with their own specific inputs into the form. The user can also update the form info. There is both a 1st input form and an update form that will show up thereafter.
Thank you!
Hi @Blue24,
So once the user submits the form, that user should get a notification (popup) or other users should get a notification? If the same user who is submitting the form which then triggering the notification, will not receive the notification. : Trigger Push Notifications | Adalo Resources
If you need to be able to show users of their notifications in a screen, you need to use a separate collection to store the notifications.
Thank you and have a great day!
Hello @Blue24,
Best practice here is to create a new Notification record per event (submit / update) instead of overwriting one record.
-
Create Notification on submit
-
Create another on update
Show history from Notifications list, and use unread count as a (Number Property) if needed
Common mistake: updating the same record => you lose history and triggers.
Happy to implement this end-to-end (if needed).
