Description

Sends a push message with Title, Text to all devices assigned to the visualization with the ID InstanceID.

Warning

The TargetID object must be available within the specified tile visualization!

Warning

If messages should be sent to further groups (special case: also single devices), another page frame visualization must be created per group

Warning

Please note that push notifications are forwarded encrypted via the IP-Symcon server to Apple/Google, and this implies a certain delay time. If there are too many messages in a row, Apple/Google's services will automatically delay the deliveries, which IP-Symcon cannot influence

Warning

The use of this feature requires, as already described in the description of the visualization, a valid subscription. You can extend this subscription at any time via our Shop. In addition, the device must be registered in IP-Symcon. You can find more information about this under the item Notification Control

Example

VISU_PostNotification(12345, 'Weather', 'It's raining soon', 'Info', 54321);
