I have a working USSD gateway, messages between the user's device and the app are set.
But there is a particular type of message where I don't want to send any dialog back to the user. When a user puts a sim inside a phone for the first time, an automated USSD call is made - I receive it and handle it, to send a configuration SMS or such.
The thing is, then I don't want to send anything to the user - there is no need for the user to be aware of that call. I didn't succeed to do that up to now. Using type End, Unidirectional or Abort didn't change anything. The message processUnstructuredSSRequest_Response still has a string that will show on screen, needing the user to click the "OK" button.
How can I make this happen ?
Found it. It's the prearrangedEnd dialog attribute, look for it in the doc https://www.restcomm.com/docs/core/ussd/USSD_Gateway_Admin_Guide.html#_attributes

I am integrating Intercom into my website,which pop ups a welcome message for all new users. but the problem is the message pops up again and again ,every time i call intercoms update method with user json as parameter until i refresh the window. this happens only when user is logged in first time.
Anybody knows how I can limit the welcome message to display only once for a user.
Micheál here from the support team at Intercom.
Intercom will only deliver a given message to a user once so if you see a situation where the same message is being sent multiple times, it's likely something is interfering with the cookie we create.
This most commonly happens when using a domain with a public suffix e.g. my_awesome_website.herokuapp.com or similar.
If you're still having issues please drop us a line at team#intercom.io and we can investigate further 🙂
I'm working on a SOS app that is supossed to send emails and/or sms when the user needs it to. This will happen using the contacts that the user added to the app. At the moment the user can add 4 of these contacts, regardles of the type (email/sms).
I'm already able to send sms OR emails using
await ChatMessageManager.ShowComposeSmsMessageAsync(chatMessage);
or
await EmailManager.ShowComposeNewEmailAsync(emailMessage);
The problem is doing both things, one after the other.
If I call both of this functions at the "same time", only one of them will show the respective page. Since OnNavigatedFrom and OnNavigatedTo events do not fire in these conditions, is there any other kind of event that fires when it comes back from the pages or some other way to wait until one of the pages is dismissed?
Thanks
Ok I've found the solution
Window.Current.VisibilityChanged
fires in this case. I'm able to figure out when the application is getting visible again and assume that the SMS was treated, launching the email at this stage.
I just start listening to the event before composing the SMS and release it when it comes back. It seem so simple now..
(Still don't know why OnNavigatedTo doesn't work)
Launch 2 SMS Compose tasks in Windows Phone 8.1 RT App pointed me in the right direction.
I'm using an ABPersonViewController and I was wondering if it is possible to return to my application after making a phone call or sending an email/message instead of exiting to the respective native apps.
On the iPhone Contacts app, you can make a phone call by pressing the phone number field. Ending the call automatically takes you back to the contact screen. You can also send an email and message by clicking on the respective fields (though ending the email/message action does not take you back to the Contacts).
To be more specific, tapping on "mobile 1 (555) 555-5559" should make a phone call to that number (my app already does that). However, when I end the call, I would like to be directed back to my app and not the native iOS Phone app. I would like similar actions for sending an email and message too.
If this is possible, it would be great if someone could share the solution! Thanks for any help.

AND

In SHORT : It is not possible because Apple/iOS Does not Provide this type of Feature.
I have a facebook app that needs to allow a user to send a message to multiple friends (potentially all their friends) at once. This isn't any kind of spam, and I don't need the app to send the message incognito (behind the scenes), I just need to open a dialog with specific friends pre-populated (that the user has selected within my app in a prior step) and then send them a custom message. Is this possible? I see the api for sending a message to a single friend, and I see the API for inviting users to my app (but that's limited to some very small number of invitations per day)... what I need is a dialog that lets me send messages to as many of the user's friends as they want, but for me to control *which friends are selected... I don't want to give them control to add/remove from the friends list.
Is this possible?
No, the Send Dialog allows prefilling only a single friend, but would otherwise be the best option here if you need a custom message displayed to the recipient. You could get the user to send to several friends in a loop by prefilling this - or fire the dialog without prefilling and let the user chose who to send to - your app won't receive a callback with the recipient IDs but you could put a referrer param in the URL sent?
Failing that, the Requests dialog / 'invites' are the only thing you can prefill with multiple recipients without the expectation that your app will be shut down for spam shortly thereafter - there's no limit per day on the number of requests sent, but you don't get to set the message shown to the recipient.
In case this is helpful to anyone else, I just found this... it's a relatively new API (still in beta) that allows for (just about) exactly what I was asking for. I've tested it and it appears to work...
https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2012/08/31/reach-users-1-1-with-the-notifications-api/
When users open a Send dialog (e.g. http://www.facebook.com/dialog/send?app_id=123050457758183&name=People%20Argue%20Just%20to%20Win&link=http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/15/arts/people-argue-just-to-win-scholars-assert.html&redirect_uri=http://www.example.com/response) they can add or remove people from the To: line.
Is there a way for the application to track who was in the To: line if and when the user actually pushes Send?
No.
At least not currently...
If you look at the official documentation: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/dialogs/send/ then you can see that this type of dialog does not expect a callback function as a parameter, and since there's no callback function then you have no way of knowing who and/or how many recipients were, and even if the dialog is closed/canceled/sent.
What you can do, though seems very complicated and well, a headache, is to use the outbox connection of the User object in the graph api (http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/user/).
I've never used that before, but I guess that you can (if you ask for the read_mailbox permission) check the user messages before and after the dialog, and see what changed.
