Sending Notifications #13

Open th0mas opened 4 years ago

th0mas commented 4 years ago

As part of the MVP, we need the ability to send notifications to users phones for both 2FA and to approve unknown users.

We need to work out what Notification system we are going to use and how that's going to integrate with our existing hub

@nelsonic Has dwyl got a preferred notification system/cloud provider to push notifications through?

@th0mas good question. Currently we don't have any Notifications setup for your own app. In the past, for client Apps, we have used AWS SNS https://aws.amazon.com/sns and Twilio https://www.twilio.com/notify Our selection criteria are: Security/Privacy, Reliability and Price. (given that we could send potentially sensitive data via a notification, I would prefer not to use a random provider that nobody has heard of...) If you want to dive into this, I think AWS SNS might be the way to go: https://github.com/dwyl/learn-push-notifications/issues/1 Please document the steps as comprehensively as you can, e.g: https://github.com/dwyl/aws-ses-lambda/blob/master/SETUP.md
