Question: Sending note to contacts ( not device ) #91

Closed ajkis closed 6 years ago

ajkis commented 6 years ago

Is there a way to send note to contact.

fbartels commented 6 years ago

That has at least worked in the past, but I am not an active Pushbullet user anymore so I cannot say if that is still the case.

ajkis commented 6 years ago

It seems its just sending email 

/opt/pushbullet-bash/pushbullet push contact@gmail.com note "test"
Sending to email address contact@gmail.com

the user is in my Chats/Contacts: list if i check with pushbullet list

the output you have posted indicates that he is indeed sending a note (contacts are identified by their email if I remember correctly and pushbullet will only actually send an email if the contact does not exist). don't these messages show up in pushbullet?

The only thing that wonders me are the differing email addresses. an incomplete attempt at hiding your real address?

yea i copy pasted to fast wanted to remove my friends email address.

The list command shows my contacts, I only wonder if there is a way to create a device from contact

no that is not possible with the api of pushbullet. devices are your own and contacts are external.
