<div><br></div><div>Right now, only a few "metadata" items are submitted to the UnifiedPush Server, using the "registerWithPushServer" (perhaps we should rename it ?):</div><div><a href="https://github.com/aerogear/aerogear-js/blob/Notifier/src/unified-push/aerogear.unifiedpush.js#L48-L52">https://github.com/aerogear/aerogear-js/blob/Notifier/src/unified-push/aerogear.unifiedpush.js#L48-L52</a><br>
</div><div><br></div><div>However, I have already filed a ticket for that (see [2]), since on Cordova (and similar things) a bit more "metadata" would be nice (since they are really treated as "native" clients, with APNs/GCM setup on the UP server etc)</div>
<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Now... talking about metadata (including the "deviceType"). The above statement, that the "deviceType" needs to match "web" for SimplePush clients leads to a question:</div>
<div><br></div><div>* Do we want to have ALL SimplePush clients auto-submit the "deviceType":"web", or not ? <br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div>So deviceType is required no matter what it's set to, correct?<br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><div>If NOT, I guess that means there will be NO deviceType for SimplePush clients, on the UnifiedPush server, which is fine.</div></div></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">
<div><br></div><div>But once more metadata is possible (e.g. after AGJS-56), I think we than need to ensure that a SP client does not set it's deviceType to something like "winBROwsPhone" :)</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div>Hmmm. I could see a situation where users may want this setting to be flexible for tracking. They may want "web-iOS" if they are using SimplePush in a iOS-Cordova app. Not sure. So to answer above, I think there should either be no device type, or if there is, let it be flexible.<br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div>
