Does anyone know of a way to send a push notification to an iPad or an iPhone that when clicked will take the user to the targeted database and record? There is a guy on YouTube that posted this video showing an app that can do this but it appears to be vaporware and it's not totally clear if it can actually launch Filemaker Go and take you to the record.

 

Has anyone tried Prowl? If so, can it open FileMaker Go and trigger script with a passed variable?

FMNotify is the only tool I've seen that would enable this. There might be another out there somewhere, but I haven't heard of it yet. It appears to no longer be available in the U.S. App Store, so you may have to badger the authors to see what's going on.

AlertFlag, the apparent successor to FMNotify, was just released to the App Store. Consider using that. Your FileMaker Go apps would interact with it by invoking custom URI schemes back-and-forth. In FileMaker Go, you'd send AlertFlag a notification to set-up using the alertflag:// URI scheme in an Open URL script step. That URI would include a callback to your FileMaker Go app using the fmp:// URI scheme, which can including running a specific script and passing it parameters.

Thanks for the link Jeremy.
