is there a way to have an audio alert for the messages sent from the Soti console? i have some departments this would be really handy for, but will be useless if they don't see the alert until the go to use the device.

i've tried with multiple options in the "send message" field and all come through silent

The following can be used if you are using v14.0+ device agent :

     showmessagebox "Your message" NO_TIMER 1 NOTIFY_DEVICE

This may result in either an audible or vibration notification alert when the message is received, depending on the mode chosen in Settings on the targeted device.

It probably takes less time to try out the two options in your web console than to ask and wait for an answer here.  

The line I posted is a script.

Yes, rest assured I tried your suggestions first. I just wanted you to verify as both didn’t work. I have since found the agent is below 14. So I’m looking for another solution
