[Notifications] How to create notifications/reminder to users with a specific role?

[John Clyde Ap_a]

Hello, how can I create a notification/reminder to users with a specific role? Can someone please guide me on how to set it up?

My main requirement is just to create a notification/reminder to each manager to check and update the drinks table. 

There are no other prerequisites for it, its just to notify the manager every week or so.

How can I achieve this?

Hi John Clyde Ap[as,

If you just want to notify manager weekly then you can create scheduled job and use eventQueue method to trigger notification by firing a event, and in the notification whom to send section you can add a manager.

If you want to send notification to the user with specific role so, you can add users to the specific group and then give role to that group and then in the notification, whom to send section select that specific group.

If you need any other help then you can ask here.

If this helps, please mark helpful and correct.

Thank you

Hello Gaurav, may I ask for help in setting up? Here is the current config so far. 

I apologize as I am still fairly new. 

PS: Do I set it up on app engine studio or studio for the notification set up?

Hello @John Clyde Ap[as ,

you can do it like this if its a weekly process 

1) Create a event in event register table 

2)Create a scheduled job where you can call your event and set your scheduled job to run weekly once at your required time with this script of your requirement and trigger the event 

var gr= new GlideRecord('your_drink_table');
gr.addQuery('<fieldname>','<value>'); //. add your query 
gr.query();
if(gr.next())
    {
        gs.eventQueue('your_event_name',gr,'','');
    }

3)Then use this event in the notification and in whom to send select your manager as the recepient

PLEASE MAK MY ANSWER CORRECT IF IT HELPS YOU

Hello Mohith,

I appreciate the reply, I have tried it but I am a bit confused on setting up the event registry.

I also have a question on which part is this referring to.

This is the current config for the script:

Thank you and I apologize for the inconvenience.
