Push Notification in Field Maps

NICK_COG

Hello,

I am moving our field teams off of Workforce with the creation of the new Field Maps Tasks.

I am curious to know if there is anyway to enable push notifications when a user is assigned a task. If the esritask_assignee field is set to a username, I would want them to get a push notification on their device. I know we could set up an email with Make/Power Automate, but I am specifically hoping for a push notification.

If not, is this functionality possible to set up? Is it something that will be developed for future releases of Field Maps?

To get task notifications, you’ll need to allow system notifications the first time you open a map with tasks. If you say no, you won’t get alerts — but the task list will still update in the app. If you allow them, notifications will start working after you relaunch Field Maps.

Note: You won’t get notifications for tasks you assign to yourself.

It should've asked the first time you opened the map.

How did you implement this? I am not seeing an option to allow notifications when the map is opened.

Mike, it appears it was! See Laura's comment. I was able to implement with no problem.

I haven't noticed any since we went live last week.

Hi Laura,

Thank you for your response! Where could I find the page in the screen shot you shared?

Have you noticed any inconsistencies with the notifications once you have it set up?

In testing, some users are getting a ping about half the time.

Also, is there a way for someone to reset their answer if they press no on accident?

Just chiming in to say I desperately need this functionality. "In app" notifications and triggering an e-mail through power automate are not effective options for me. I have projects that want to generate hundreds of tasks over the project lifecycle and none of that needs to happen via e-mail. I need my field staff to get a push notification when something is assigned to them. I am soooo disappointed this wasn't minimum viable product functionality for Tasks.
