When configuring notifications for your mobile app, you may want to test that your push notifications are working correctly.
To test your push notifications you can follow these steps:
- Navigate to Quick-access menu > Plugins > Message outputs > Totara AirNotifier.
- Enter the AirNotifier Server URL, AirNotifier App Name and AirNotifier App Code, then click Save changes.
- Create a new user on your Totara site using the email address of someone who has the latest Totara mobile app installed on their phone.
- Log in as the new user and navigate to User menu > Preferences > Notification preferences and ensure that Totara Air Notifier and Web are set to On for the required notification types for both online and offline.
- Trigger a notification for the user, e.g. the user booking a seminar event.
- Check the user's phone for a seminar booking notification - ensure you are logged in to the Totara Mobile App before sending the notification.
