Background Xamerin notifications based on query #5053

Greetings everyone!

I am just going to start looking at the mobile projects. I have no prior experience with smartphone development (but I will soon!) and I don't want to make any assumptions. I am ready to dive in but thought I would just get some feedback here that might save me some grief.

With the ASP.NET Zero project out of the box, what I need to achieve now is to have smartphone apps that send background notifications to the user/clients based on:

1.) A SQL query result on the backend. Something like a schedule / appointment alarm. 2.) When certain data us updated such as a new appointment is created by someone else for the user.

Any tips would be appreciated! My assumption that this is "Push" technology to the client, but now I will go do some exploring. :)

Thanks!!

    You will need some kind of push notification system. We were looking at doing this: <a class="postlink" href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/data-cloud/push-notifications/azure">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/xamari ... ions/azure</a>

    Note: this is just one piece, you would need another trigger to do the query to tell the hub to send it, and to whom or what subscription group.
