What Happens After Integration

Once your Sharetribe plugin is successfully connected in the Twinr Builder Portal using the Client ID and Client Secret, Twinr establishes a secure link between your Sharetribe marketplace and your mobile application.

After this setup, the following capabilities become active:

---

Marketplace Sync with Mobile App

• Your Sharetribe marketplace is now linked to the Twinr mobile app.

• Users can log in to the mobile app and access marketplace features such as listings, orders, and inbox conversations.

---

Push Notifications for New Messages

• Twinr provides push notifications for Sharetribe messages.

• When a user receives a new message, a notification is delivered to their mobile device.

• Tapping the notification opens the app and takes the user directly to the relevant conversation.

---

Firebase Requirement (Important)

To receive push notifications:

• Firebase must be enabled for your app in the Twinr Builder Portal.

• Users must allow notification permissions on their devices.

If Firebase is not enabled, users can still access messages inside the app, but push notifications will not be delivered.

Login Script Requirement (Mandatory for Push Notifications)

To enable push notifications for Sharetribe messages, a Login script must be added in the Login screen configuration.

This step is required so Twinr can deliver push notifications to the correct mobile user.
