Push notification action
This action lets you send users a push notification. The basic requirement for this is the use of the Intrexx Mobile App. You can define the sender, recipients, content and link destination of the action in the properties dialog.
Create push message action
The push message action can be found in processes in the "Elements" area. It belongs to the "Actions" category. From there, it can be dragged and dropped to the desired position in the process chain and then configured. General information on creating process elements can be found here.
If you have created the push message action on the workspace, open the properties dialog by double-clicking on the element.

Lifetime of the notification for delivery
This setting determines how long the message is maintained if the recipient's mobile device is offline. Enter the length of the time to live here. The desired unit (seconds, minutes, hours, days) can be selected from the drop-down list. If you do not enter anything here, the maximum lifetime is 28 days.
Use current transaction for sending notification
This setting means that the notification is sent asynchronously internally. The option is preset - no message is sent in the event of an error.
Test mode ("Dry run")
With this setting, the query to the notification service can be tested without actually sending the notification.
Click "OK" to complete the configuration.
Exception handling
Exception handling can only be configured in the properties dialog for process elements that have already been created. Here you can specify whether the transaction should be canceled or continued if there is no recipient, no content or no title. To do this, click on "Configure exception handling".
Behavior when an error occurs
You can also find this dialog in the properties of the process elements MS365 Create group, Plugin feed action, Text feed action,"Create group" and"Manage group".
Depending on the context, you will find the description of the case for which the procedure is to be configured in the upper part of the dialog.
Cancel transaction (default)
Causes the entire process to be aborted if an error occurs - e.g. if a data field relevant for sending does not contain any valid data.
Continue transaction
The error is ignored. If messages are affected, they will not be sent. The process will continue with the next action.
