Send push notification using UrbanAirship on Monodroid - c#

I have an application that uses UA for receiving push notifications. I've need to add in support for sending local push notification within the app.
I've searched around and can't find any sort of example on how to send using Xamarin.Android a push notification with UA.
Does anyone know where I can find such an example or if they have an example I can use and modify?

From what I can read, UA does not directly support local push notifications, so you would need to send the notification to the UA server, which then pushes it to the device.
Otherwise you could use "normal" notifications, inside your app using the NotificationManager.

Offline server that hosts push notifications to Android and IOS

Heya im trying to create an app that people can use to send push notifications to eachohter. The only catch is that the users will be working in an offline server within a company. They won't have access to the internet so connecting to something like Azure Notification Hubs is not possible. The only thing I have been able to find is, that it is possible to create a server from which you could send push notifications. Only problem is, I can't find how to send these notifications. If anyone has any kind of clue how I could send the notifications to the server and then to the users, I would be forever gratefull. Thanks!

How Amazon SNS works with NodeJS and Xamarin?

I have Xamarin.Forms as my client side and Node as my Server side. Currently I am implementing a push notification feature. I found Amazon providing it through Amazon SNS. I have gone through the documentation. It states that we have to publish all our message to a topic and those who subscribe it, can get the push notification but my requirement is different. I have a role based app. If I send a request to another person, it should trigger a push notification. Basically I need to target specific device that use my app and not the topic publish subscribe things.
Is this possible with Amazon SNS or should I choose some other service which fulfill my requirement as I stated above? Please Help me out. Thanks
Yes. You can notify individual devices either through console or by API. Here are some information. Via console. You can also specify a TargetArn with the API call, which can be an endpoint URL.

Detect a video upload YouTube API

I'm developing a bot for discord and I would like to ask you how could I detect when I upload a video to Youtube to send a message to all users on my discord's server. I know some servers who use this function. Thank you!
You can use subscribe to YouTube's Data API push notification via PubSubHubbub.
The approach can be summarised as:
Set up a callback server that can handle incoming Atom feed notifications.
Use the Google hub to subscribe to receive push notifications.
Process notifications sent to your callback server.
Detailed instructions can be found here.
It is worth noting that the PubSubHubbub sample I read was using Node.

Notification Hubs Message Status

I have some deployed mobile apps that use a backend Web API (not Mobile Service). I added push notifications support using another vendor. Recently...I wanted to check up on Azure Notification Hubs to see if I can also use them for some specific scenario. I am finding out that the documentation has not been updated for a while ...is it me? Is the notification hub the preferred way to send push notifications in Azure?
I am specifically interested in server-side registration. The doc has a special section about that which is nice but it looks quite complicated. Anyway, is there a way to retrieve the status of a message after I send it? For example, if I send a message to target a specific tag, I would like to know how many devices for each platform (i.e. Android, iOS and Windows) it was delivered to and whether the message is still in enqueue, etc.
I just responded to you at https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/d420fcc2-7e96-46cc-9dfc-71ea18086b56/notification-hubs-message-status?forum=notificationhubs. Thanks!

How to send pushnotification to Apple and Android?

I have applied Push Sharp in my existing WCF Service (C#) to send Push notification to particular user, for this I am using Device Id of i Pad app and using that I am sending Push notification to that user, its working fine.
But now what i want is, i need to send push notification to all the user who are using the application, means i need to send the notification globally, so how can I send push notification global with out using Device Specific id, like can we send push notification based on application id or some thing like this.
There are various Api that is provide to send Pushnotification.
You can use Api of parce.com or Urban Airship to send Pushnotification using your c# code.
