Add-On Live — v1.0.0

CampanaOne DA
Desktop Alert.

A lightweight agent that runs silently on staff workstations. When an alert is sent from CampanaOne, a full-screen overlay appears instantly — on top of every other application — and stays until the recipient acknowledges it.

How It Works

Alert sent. Screen taken over. Acknowledged.

1

Admin sends an alert

From the CampanaOne web portal, an admin composes a message and selects Desktop Alert as one of the channels. It can be combined with SMS, voice, and email in the same campaign.

2

Agent receives via WebSocket

The DA agent running on each workstation maintains a persistent WebSocket connection to CampanaOne. Alerts are pushed in real time — no polling, no delay.

3

Full-screen overlay appears

An always-on-top modal takes over the screen. The alert persists through window switches, minimise attempts, and screen lock cycles until the recipient explicitly acknowledges it.

4

Delivery confirmed in real time

The acknowledgement is recorded in CampanaOne's delivery report instantly. Admins see per-device confirmed, pending, and failed status alongside all other channels.

Priority Alert

🚨 Building Evacuation — Block C

Please evacuate Block C immediately via the north stairwell. Do not use lifts. Assembly point: Car Park B. This is not a drill.

Alert overlay — always on top, cannot be dismissed without acknowledgement

Features

Built for mission-critical environments.

🖥️

Always-on-top overlay

The alert modal renders above every application window, including full-screen apps and video conferencing tools.

Forced acknowledgement

Recipients cannot dismiss the alert by clicking away, pressing Escape, or minimising. Only an explicit acknowledgement clears it.

Real-time WebSocket push

Alerts arrive via persistent WebSocket — no polling, no delay. Offline fallback polling activates automatically when WebSocket is unavailable.

📚

Alert queue

Multiple simultaneous alerts queue automatically. Each must be acknowledged individually before the next appears. No alerts are silently dropped.

🔄

Auto-start on boot

The agent registers as a system service and starts automatically on every boot. No user action required after initial deployment.

🔒

OTP device verification

On first launch, a one-time code is emailed to the user. Only verified devices receive alerts — no unauthorised installations can receive alerts.

🖼️

Rich media alerts

Alerts can include images, documents, and video attachments — not just plain text. Display evacuation maps, safety instructions, or identification photos.

📊

Live delivery reporting

Per-device delivery status updates in real time in the CampanaOne admin portal. See confirmed, pending, and unreachable devices as the alert rolls out.

🌐

OS & distro dashboard

The DA Report page shows all registered devices broken down by OS, version, and last-seen time, so IT can ensure full coverage before an incident.

Use Cases

When a phone call isn't enough.

🏥

Hospital emergency recall

Recall off-duty clinical staff with a desktop alert that appears the moment they log in to their workstation — verified, acknowledged, reported.

🏢

Building evacuation

Send an evacuation alert to all workstations simultaneously. The overlay cannot be dismissed — every employee must acknowledge they have seen it.

💻

IT critical outage alert

Alert all active workstations of a planned maintenance window or active security incident — even when email inboxes may be down.

🛡️

Security incident response

Notify security operations staff of a live threat. Include an image, document, or video alongside the message — directly in the alert overlay.
