Which example are you referring to, and what is not explained in the guide?
Actually I am not asking about the guide, I wanted to know what does each value in the list here actually mean:
This simply sets the connection values for the redis server to be used.
When using your own redis server you provide the url and the password (this is setup in the redis server, see the guide)
When using the MIT redis server you again provide the url (as indicated in the guide) and the token (found in the designer)
The number 6381 is the port that the redis server is assigned to, the code number 2 is for cloudDB
Hi, i have some problems with the procedure about the exemple number 4. I tried to do what did you say, but:
- i don't know which is the number that i have to write after /formResponse?entry.
Could you help me? - if i try to launch the apk on the phone and to press a button linked to the blocks about notification a notification arrives to me with a very long message with letters and numbers that i didn't catch... i'm sorry for my bad english

Now updated to work with the latest itoo and melonNotifcation extensions. See the Summary post (#9) for more details.

I was going to use the firebase ona and was wondering if its safe, like, since rules are read and edit true, can't anyone view and edit it? And also is the api key in appinventor safe for production? Isn't it still viewable somewere in the source code of the apk?
If you have secure rules and firebase authentication for users in place, then there should be no issue with the API key or firebase url.
but isn't
"itoo": {
".read": true,
".write": true
?? if yes then everyone can see and edi that right? and if not then how do i make it view and edit it?
You can always use the user signin idtoken and set the itoo rules accordingly. The examples here, as stated are the very basics for what is required. You can expand on them and secure as required.
I worked up a method here
for the google sheets example, to send notifications to individual devices, based upon the uuid of the user. It is a basic example, but the same approach could possibly be applied to other methods in this topic.
Wait does this work when you are not inside app? How?
Seems you need to settle down for an hour or two, and read this topic:
ok I undestand now, I do have a question tho, whats the difference between example one and two?
That was quick!
Well, if you read through each one you will see.
- Uses DataChanged event
- Uses a Clock timer
Hello Developers,
I using Itoo+MelonNotification for a chat app using firebase for connection of users. but the problem is that I can not set the Project Bucket of firebase in the designer section, because the Project Bucket of each user is his/her phone number which he/she will enter in the specific text box after installing.
this is my firebase structure:
and these are my blocks:
these blocks didn't worked while the app is live of killed. can anyone help how to fix.
I have an example a few posts above that handles individualised messages using google sheets. Perhaps you can use this to apply it to Firebase ?
If you mean this post, unfortunately I couldn't understand, I am not specialized in coding, if is possible for you please give me a little more details. Thank you in Advance 
.
In the example I showed, the simplest approach is with regard to what happens in the fetchMessage block:
When a "notification" message arrives, if the data sent in the message contains the user's id (UID) then set the notification. It could be that you have to create the message containing all the UIDs of all the users, but only set a notification for the user's device with the matching UID. I have not tried it, but the message "setter" could select from a list of UIDs to add to a message.
Also, how do you intend to keep your data and that of your users safe and secure ?
Thanks for your help,
I arranged my blocks like below but I couldn't get notification when the app is open or closed, I check it in Samsung Tablet S6,
I will be grateful if you have a look,
for keeping data safe, I am not sure how much is possible, but I will try to use Phone Authentication or Data encryption.
