Notifications for signed in player

LastNotificationDate

1. Check if the

   AuthenticationService.Instance.LastNotificationDate

   field is not null after every successful sign in. If it is not null, then there are notifications available for that player.
2. Confirm if the

   LastNotificationDate

   is greater than the value you stored for the last notification the player read.
3. Retrieve the player's notifications by calling the

   GetNotificationsAsync

   method.
4. Display the notifications to the player. (The notifications are available in the return value of the

   GetNotificationsAsync

   method and are also cached in the

   Notifications

   field.)
5. When the player reads a notification you must store the greater value between that notification's

   CreatedAt

   value and the stored value for the player's last read notification.

   AuthenticationException
