Hi all..

I'm developing a custom module and I'm using DNN 5.4.1. I'm sending an email to the user but i want also  to send the same message to users message inbox on the portal. I know there is a messaging API, but can't find examples on how to use it. Can anybody help me with this? How to programmaticly send message to the user?

If anyone is interested to send message to another user here is how:

DotNetNuke.Services.Messaging.Data.Message inboxMessage = new DotNetNuke.Services.Messaging.Data.Message();
                inboxMessage.FromUserID = 1;
                inboxMessage.PortalID = PortalId;
                inboxMessage.Subject = "Message subject";                
                inboxMessage.Body = "Message Body";
                inboxMessage.EmailSent = false;
                inboxMessage.ToUserID = 5; //ID of the user to send messsage
                inboxMessage.Status = DotNetNuke.Services.Messaging.Data.MessageStatusType.Unread;
                inboxMessage.MessageDate = DateTime.Now;
                DotNetNuke.Services.Messaging.Data.MessagingDataService dnnMessaging = new DotNetNuke.Services.Messaging.Data.MessagingDataService();       
                long result = dnnMessaging.SaveMessage(inboxMessage);
                dnnMessaging.UpdateMessage(inboxMessage);

Useful, and here it is in VB.NET

Dim inboxMessage As New DotNetNuke.Services.Messaging.Data.Message()
inboxMessage.FromUserID = 1
inboxMessage.PortalID = PortalId
inboxMessage.Subject = "Message subject"
inboxMessage.Body = "Message Body"
inboxMessage.EmailSent = False
inboxMessage.ToUserID = 5
'ID of the user to send messsage
inboxMessage.Status = DotNetNuke.Services.Messaging.Data.MessageStatusType.Unread
inboxMessage.MessageDate = DateTime.Now
Dim dnnMessaging As New DotNetNuke.Services.Messaging.Data.MessagingDataService()
Dim result As Long = dnnMessaging.SaveMessage(inboxMessage)
dnnMessaging.UpdateMessage(inboxMessage)

It does not appear from the Messaging API nor from the Messaging module code that there are any restrictions on what content is passed in the Body property of the Message. There are no properties that need to be set to specify that the Body contains text only or HTML content (unlike the SendMail API). Accordingly it would appear that any HTML markup which is included in the Body will be sent and displayed to the recipient user.

I would caution that if you are not using the DNN text editor control which will automatically HtmlEncode markup that you will need to consider the security implications of passing raw HTML content through the Messaging API and sanitize it appropriately before saving.
