Send push notifications

Keep logged-in users informed with push notifications on desktop and mobile. Send custom notifications from your workflows with the Push Notification action. To get started, go to your App > Users > Notifications.

Push notifications for comments and mentions are coming soon.

Note: On iOS, users will need to install your app as a PWA to receive notifications.

Build more reliable workflows

We’ve added two updates that give you more control when a workflow doesn’t run as expected:

  • Replay failed workflow executions: This helps you recover faster when an issue is fixed or a temporary error is resolved.

  • Continue on error: Let a workflow keep running even if one action fails. This is useful when one step isn’t critical to the rest of the process.

More updates

  • Workspace builders can now view plan, usage, and AI activity.

Hi Cole,

Thanks for this message.

Do you think it will be possible to limit push notifications to a specific user group or to several selected groups?

Thanks, Gérald

Is an alert notification centre / icon going to come too? I.e. how can a user see a rollup of total outstanding notifications they need to read/action? Airtable does this well with an icon + notification centre

How do we know if users have activated push notifications?

5

@FPX soon we should be able to expose the info in users table…

@FPX Yes notification center is coming soon

@gerald Yes could be done by using workflow to find users with condition and only send to those that match to user group conditions

Great. It would be ideal if we could add blocks to this page (same as other utility pages). For example we have a ‘Notification Centre’ we made for our users to turn on/off for things like;
a) Quotes

b) Orders

c) Stock

etc

→ So our customers not just ‘allow all push notifications’ but enable on a sub level depending what they want to be notified about (which we then use automations/workflows to filter by user what they’re being notified on.

Thanks - without this there’s no point using this feature as we dont know what our customers status is. We currently use airtable automations (outlook email) as our notifications combined with a custom notification centre (softr) for customers to self service
