Mobile Notification
With the Networking module, you can send push notifications to both Android and IOS without using SMS messages (so works with non-phone devices, like tablets and media players).
All of these products utilize the respective push notification infrastructures - and use very similar APIs. You must first setup an account for respective API and install appropriate third party product from the respective market/store. To configure in the ISY, follow these steps:
MobiLinc Connect
MobiLinc on IOS (not Android - yet) offers notification within it's subscription to the connect service. See http://mobilinc.com/features/push/
Prowl
Apps
Instructions
- Sign up at https://www.prowlapp.com
- Enter credentials into Prowl on your IOS device
- Send a test notification from https://www.prowlapp.com/add_notification.php to verify installation
- Create an API key at https://www.prowlapp.com/api_settings.php
- For each message you wish to send, create a network resource as follows
- 'https' 'post'
- host is 'api.prowlapp.com'
- port is 443
- path is '/publicapi/add'
- timeout at least 2000ms (SSL takes a while to become established - can be lower if you change method to 'http' though
- mode is 'C Escaped'
- body to 'apikey=#API Key#&application=ISY&event=TEST ONLY&description=Test Notification\n'
- (obviously - replace #API Key# with your API key
Notify My Android
Apps
Instructions
- Sign up at https://www.notifymyandroid.com
- Enter credentials into 'Notify My Android' on device
- Send a test message from https://www.notifymyandroid.com/notify.php to verify installation
- Create an API key at https://www.notifymyandroid.com/account.php
- For each message you wish to send, create a network resource as follows
- 'https' 'post'
- host is 'www.notifymyandroid.com'
- port is 443
- path is '/publicapi/notify'
- timeout at least 2000ms (SSL takes a while to become established - can be lower if you change method to 'http' though

Additional Info
Many APIs have other optional parameters you can send as well - details are on the sites in the API documentation.
On the ISY - there are potentially some issues with SSL negotiation depending on if you have the PRO version or not. Go into the dashboard (http://www.universal-devices.com/99i/dashboard.jnlp) and in the network settings make sure 'HTTPS Client Settings' is set to 'TLS 1.2' and 'All' is set for strength. Uncheck 'Verify'.
Other settings may work - this is just what works for me - and it's a security best practice now to avoid SSL3.
Currently - a separate network resource needs to be created for each potential action. So - one for 'Light On' and another for 'Light Off'. This makes it difficult to send, for instance, the current temperature. Version 5 of ISY is likely to make available variable substitution in network resources, which will remove this shortcoming.
