ContactsLaw uses push notifications to communicate changes and other noteworthy events from the REST API, DMS App and Daemon to the Desktop App.

Most commonly, this is used to refresh views when another user creates, modifies or deletes a resource that could affect the current user.

Push notifications are also used to:

  • Notify users when task or calendar items are delegated to them
  • Notify users when an attendee responds to an invitation they sent
  • Automatically display prompts and forms created by a process

Notifications are only delivered while the application is running and a window for the relevant subscription is open. They are transient in nature and cannot be subsequently retrieved.
