I have some messages I only want to send when the player is online. Do I achieve this, when I set expire to 0 in the message configurator?
The expire field does not exists in the documentaion at: https://docs.gamesparks.net/developer-portal/notifications
Cheers David

Hey David,
Yes, setting the expire-hours to '0' will send the message and then delete it. Note that the message will be deleted, and wont appear in the log if you need info from it later; just something to consider. However, it may take a few minutes for the message to actually be deleted, so test it out and if it is taking too long, you could think about sending the messages through cloud-code. You can check if a player is online using Spark.getPlayer() then send out the message using SparkMessage .

Hi Sean,
But leaving the expire-hours blank ensures the message never expires, right?
