Setting up a Protocol to Communicate With Your Web Service for Windows Phone
1/28/2011
An application is responsible for securely transmitting its notification channel URI to its corresponding web service. Windows Phone does not provide a framework to do this, since in most scenarios, applications and web services already have their own protocols that they use to communicate to each other.
-
The application should authenticate with its corresponding web service.
-
The application should encrypt its notification channel URI before sending the URI to its corresponding web service.
-
The web service should validate the notification channel URI received from its corresponding application and store it in a secure manner.
-
When a session is initiated from the application, the notification channel URI should always be sent to its corresponding web service.
-
The web service should have a status code that it can send to its corresponding application which will trigger the application to create a new notification channel URI.
