Creating Notifications

To create a notification create a database entry via the Notification model:



App\Models\Notification::create([
    'title'                 => 'Joe Called',
    'assigned_to_user_id'   => $user->id,
    'assigned_from_user_id' => auth()->id(),
    'link'                  => route('admin.contacts')
]);

The notifications will be clickable if a URL has been provided.
