But like when u dust say when an player joins an loop goos on so all his friends get spammed with messages, or does it show that gui first before the message is send?
Love this. With the introduction of a new “Notification” asset type, I’m wondering if mobile push notifications are on the horizon?
@ThatOneUnoriginal Yes, you can silence / prevent the notification from being pushed onto your device. You can decide which notifications you’d like to receive via push on the Notification settings page (Settings > Notifications).
Push notifications are not currently supported on PC/Laptop - we plan on addressing this in the near future.
Nonetheless, these invite notifications will always be delivered to the users’ on platform notification tray (Roblox app / roblox.com)

Great to here.
Something else which would be useful is to know if someone has invited someone or not (e.g. like an event that will be fired) and when someone cancels/closes the UI. This could be useful if you want to have some type of reward system for inviting someone but you want it so even if they don’t join your experience you can still give rewards.
I saw someone asking today on how to do this and I don’t think there is a way which is a bit annoying.
oh wow. This actually seems like a good update. Is there a way that instead of having the prompts be in the user’s notifications its in the chat? Or possibly also have it so if someone is on pc, it’ll send him a notification? As the notification sending directly to device seems to only be available on phones.
Thank you for the feedback. For the sake of player safety, we want to ensure players are not being mislead with respect to which experience they are being invited to. This is why we are requiring the {experienceName} placeholder and making the {displayName} placeholder optional. We left a bit of extra space for developers to customize their notifications - we hope this is enough space to add specific area names or stage numbers.
Thank you for the feedback - we’ll take a look and see what we can do!
Please let us know if this issue persists. We hope this was just a temporary issue.

I mean thats not really helpful as I personally never check my notification tray. It would be better if you guys added push notification.
It’s in the works - stay tuned!
In the meantime, we do encourage you check the notification tray. We are actively working on redesigning the notification tray content and adding more notification use cases!

Thank you for flagging! Please note, this functionality currently works for users adding custom notifications to their own user-owned experiences, but not for collaborators or group-owned experiences.
Our team has identified the root cause and is actively working on a fix. We hope to have this issue resolved very soon and will update you once fixed. Keep in mind that even after this fix is implemented, players will not be able to see custom notifications right away. This functionality will be rolling out over the coming weeks.
We apologize for any inconvenience this caused.

This was a while ago, way before this update. It’s probably fixed now.

I understand that having the experience name present is a good requirement however there is currently no way for me to add custom text to append to the notification or fill a different field.
For example if I have 100 stages in my obby and wish to display the player’s current stage in the obby in the notification. I will be required to type out all 100 entries into the notification string page!
