Push Notifications in .Net web form application

[Subhashini]

Hi,

I am using RadNotifications to display success/fail messages for user induced database updates. Is it possible to use RadNotifications when an event occurs in the server due to some timer actions. For e.g., I am checking for inserts and updates in a database table for every 5 minutes and displaying the count in a label. I want to push notify the user on any DB updates in this timer event. Is that possible ?

Hi Subhashini,

RadNotification does not offer built-in push notification capabilities. What I can suggest is the following:

1. use a library like SignalR to get the push notifications to the browser (i.e., a JS event)
2. use the client-side API of the RadNotification control to set its text, title and to show it: http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/notification/client-side-programming/radnotification-object.

Thanks for the prompt reply. I was thinking the same. Also I wanted to just to make sure I was not missing anything.
