How to display notification in Mashup using WebSocket ?

[seanccc]

Hi, 

I need to  implement a notification function.    When certain event get raised from ThingWorx and is captured by the subscription ,  the mashup will display a notification message . 

Auto refresh widget may achieve this as a workaround ,  but I think WebSocket is  the best solution,  does ThingWorx provides OOTB function/extension for this kind of need ?

@abjain ,

So,  it's still a "Pull"  solution ,  I need to call the service to get the alter information regularly from the Mashup using auto refresh widget.   

Is there a "Push"  solution which can send message from ThingWorx server to Mashup ?

@seanccc : I think you will have to use auto-refresh widget for getting new values by calling services.

@abjain ，

So I have to pull....  but for such a common function,  it's quite necessary for ThingWorx to provide the "Push" approach I think .
