#pushnotifier

You can now send to even more devices – specifically Telegram and Webhooks. This is a great way to enhance PushNotifier even more, especially for people who don’t want to use their phones to receive messages.

Telegram: Just add a device, select Telegram and click on “Start Telegram Bot”. You can also add it manually to group chats by first inviting the bot to your group and then pasting a special command you can retrieve by clicking “Add to group chat”.

Webhook: Just add a device, select Webhook and enter the URL each notifications should be sent to when sent to this device. Read the documentation below carefully to make sure, your Webhook correctly parses any incoming notification.

After almost 5 years of service, it was time to rethink what PushNotifier is and how it should work. And that is what this new version is thought to be.

A completely new design with a completely new backend ensures that PushNotifier can run securely (i.e. SSL is now enforced everywhere) and more efficiently for the next 5 years. And we didn’t just rewrite PushNotifier entirely. We’re also adding new features to it.

Soon you’ll be able to receive messages via Telegram and send images and other files to your devices. This will make PushNotifier even more versatile. And there are even more features to come.

For you developers out there we also have a completely new API. Get started at https://api.pushnotifier.de/v2/doc The old API will continue working for a while but won’t accept any new applications.

Today from 23:00-3:00 (CET) we’ll be launching a big update to PushNotifier. Due to the nature of the update, you won’t be able to send or receive notifications during that timeframe.

Today, PushNotifier got an update on Google Play, its API and its SDK. This new update allows developers to push a new type of notifications: HIDDENURL.

What is that?

"Normal" notifications are either a message or an URL. This is far from useful when sending notifications that need an URL. HIDDENURL makes it possible to do that.

When you specify "HIDDENURL" as type and an URL as "hiddenURL" you can now send URLs beside notifications. These will display just like GIDIX notifications.

You can grab the SDK from pushnotifier.de/sdk.

Please keep in mind that the process of sending messages through the SDK has changed. Read the corresponding README-file for your language.

Wondering how you can use the PushNotifier API in your application? Stop wondering and download the official PushNotifier SDK. The SDK is the easiest and quickest way to get your application to talk to PushNotifier.
