How can I add a message to a member’s notifications (to appear in the same place and format as their Wix notifications), and light up the default notification bell on the header. In this case I want to inform a member that someone has requested information from them and include a link in the message to the page containing the details.
Are you referring to a Dashboard Notification?
If so, you can accomplish this using the notify() method from the Wix CRM Backend API.
Specifically, I want to send a notification to one of my site member’s notifications page and have it light up the alert bell icon on their page header until they check it.
Can’t open the notify() link you posted, some sort of permissions error.
I found docs on two Wix APIs for notify() but both state that the channels (mobile, dashboard, browser) are only for notifying a site’s “owner” or “contributors.” I’m looking for how to send a notification message and light up the alert bell for my site’s “members.”

What I’m trying to do is identify the specific channel of an individual site member by their email and then send a notification by code thru that channel so that it appears on the Notifications page in their Members area.
