Good morning . we are trying to send push notification by your Kinvey provider but we 
find some problem about send notification only to some device …

At this time We develop 2 Application develop  by Embarcadero Xe10  platform: 

>> APP “A ”<<<
1) The APP : Insert a record on a Kinvey table named :“UserApp”
2) the APP : waiting push notification  and memorize it on a listBox.. .

>> APP “B ”<<< Sender of Push notification

1) The APP : Insert a record on a Kinvey table named :“Messages”
2) On Kinvey Business Logic  we set a “OnPresave ” Hook in “Messages” table
     And … on it … we write some code that do a query on “UserApp” table 
      and try to send notification to the device that corresponding on the query result ..

===> We try the query … and it work fine …  
   But  the notification doesn’t Work !!   by  method : >>>>push.send(doc, message);  <<<<  Why ?? 

 - if in business Logic… we use method  :   push.broadcastMessage(request.body.message, function(err, result)  IT WORK FINE!

Why ?

Why the broadcast work fine ?

How can I see the “device id” that insert the record on table “UserApp” ?

Where can I see in Kynvwey all device registered ?

Please, can you help us ?

Hi,

Can you share the code for onPreSave hook which doesn't work?

Is this issue happening for both Android and iOS devices?

Hi,

I lloked at your onPreSave hook code:

• The push.broadcastMessage is sent to registered users of the app.
• Your code seems to be trying to send push notifications to rows in PharmacyUsers collection. That is not possible.

Hi Wani , thanks for your answer!

Yes.. I try to send push notification to PharmacyUsers… (deive who insert the record....) 
because I think that I lack a concept … :-(

In my idea … I want create a APP (with embarcadero) … that at the first time running… ask to the App user some data…(Age, sex, and so on. )
Than the data  are posted by App to Kinvey Tabe “PharmacyUsers”…  I do like, in the same time that The data are linked with the user App device UID…

Than… in a next time, when I’ll use another App … I can interrogate “PharmacyUser” table  and send notification to the device that insert the funded  record (by business logic query)…

Is that possible ? How can I do ?

BR.

In your example... 

What do you mean ? Do you mean  that there is a collencion named "user" that have fiel like "firstName" ?

Don't you do the same things that i have do for PahrmacyUsers ? 

Thanks for your attenction

BR.

var push = modules.push, collectionAccess = modules.collectionAccess; 

 collectionAccess.collection('user').find({"firstName": request.body.firstName}, function (err, userColl) { 

if (err) { 

 logger.error('Query failed: '+ err); 

} else { 

   userColl.forEach(function (user) { 

         logger.info('Pushing message to ' + user); 

          push.sendMessage(user, "People who are named " + user.firstName + " are awesome!", function(err, result) { }); }); } });

Please.. help.. Thanks a lot!
