I am keen to do some modifications to the Discourse Mobile app to get push notifications working for our self-hosted installation of Discourse, particularly on iOS. From reading the What if I want to white-label the Discourse Mobile apps? thread, it seems that I would need to configure the allowed u…

I did a bit of trawling through the Discourse source code, and found the following in the post_alerter.rb file: app/services/post_alerter.rb c531f4ded MessageBus.publish("/notification-alert/#{user.id}", payload, user_ids: [user.id]) push_…

[صورة] skoota: does each user who wants to opt-in for push notifications need a user-based API key? yes [صورة] skoota: I am still not sure about the workflow of how a user would start an iOS app, agree to receive push notifications, and then all the stuff on the backend of Discourse happ…

Thanks for the info @sam [صورة] sam: When you create your user api key and “approve” the app to read access, push access is implied. This can be controlled by your mobile phone anyway cause you can later on disallow push notifications. Okay, so I am still a bit confused here… Am I correct…

[صورة] sam: I am not following your question at all, I linked to source code for the mobile app you are planning on re-branding… Sorry, my bad. I have been looking at the Discourse source code all morning and I didn’t notice that was the mobile app. Makes far more sense now :slight_smile: On…

[صورة] skoota: to allow the Discourse admin to control/limit where pushes can be sent regardless of what an external app registered? Correct, that is the point, end users have only limited control over where push notifications go. This is required for security, cause a rogue app could then ma…

Thanks @sam . Appreciate your help :slight_smile:
