UrbanAirship Push Notifications

[Krammig]

I would appreciate feedback form anyone who has created an app that uses the UrbanAirship Push Notification service.

In particular I am looking for a sample B4A app that could get me going on this. I have almost zero Java knowledge and while I have set up an account at UA I can't seem to grasp how I can get this hooked into B4A

thanks in advance

Urban airship

Hi there, i just came across this great tool "Urban airship" but i'm having trouble figuring it out, i'm trying to send push notifications but i can't figure out what to enter in the APID field, i know is a 36 long character string but where do i get this from?

Have you gotten this to work actually?
can you provide some tips or a small tutorial on how to use this?

Thanks,
Walter

It is generated at the Google end. You need to create an API code on Google, then put that in to Urban Airship and then you will get your App ID.
