How to send data using Azure SignalR Service from a JS SignalR client to a C# SignalR client?

Question

Hello there,

I have two signalR clients: ClientA is based on JavaScript and ClientB is based on C#. The objective is to send user input from ClientA and to ClientB. Both clients are completely different and don't belong to the same group. The signalR service operates in Serverless mode.

I tried using the same target method, "newMessage" but it doesn't work. Is there an example of this scenario? Could you suggest a blog or an example on GitHub?

Thanks

Hello @Adwait Naik ,

welcome to this moderated Azure community forum.

You have two clients connected to the same SignalR hub.

You want to send a message from one client to another.

Have you considered sending a message to the hub first?

You can use the hub for sending the message to the other client (if you know the id) or multiple clients (and have the filtering done in all clients), or even create groups?

Check out the basic chat example of SignalR for more details. Take some time to experiment what method is the best for you.

If you use the SDK of your language, the functionality offered is the same in any language.

Check this page with information about the clients available (eg. .Net client and Javascript client) .

This page offers an example running the Java script client.
