can we execute notification service after we respond the data

get("/test") {
    call.respond("hello")
    sendNotification() // does this function call execute properly
}

I do it like this:

suspendedTransactionAsync(<http://Dispatchers.IO|Dispatchers.IO>) {
    notificationsController.createNotificationForCommentVote(userId, commentId)
}

The call is before

call.respond("hello")

But Your solution should work as well, but if for any reason the notification sending fails you won’t know unless you have some retry messaging que or something

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

IMHO It's better to call a notification function before call.respond because the latter executes the whole response pipeline.

Yeap I agree with @Aleksei Tirman [JB], that is why I use the suspendedTransactionAsync this way I respond back without waiting for the notification to be send
