Notifications

So now you're ready to send a notification and get your content in front of your subscribers!
In this section we will explain the different types of notifications we support and how to create them

🚧

Before you begin make sure

  1. You've created a segment of subscribers
  2. You've already uploaded your content

Types of Notifications

There are three main notification types:

  • Standard - simple notification without content
  • Video - notification with video
  • Carousel - notification with carousel images

Utilise the POST /v1/notification endpoint to save a notification without actually pushing it. This will return a notification object which will have a id field. Push subsequent updates to the notification using this id field to update same notification. Once you have finished creating your notification object, push it using POST /v1/notification/push endpoint (make sure to include the id in the body payload if you're pushing an existing notification)

We also have a simple endpoint, POST /v1/push, which can be used to fire off a notification in a single API call. Small guide to use this endpoint can be found here. Note: endpoint soon to be deprecated

There are also various aspects to a notification, including personalisation. This feature enables you to include personalised subscriber data into certain notification fields. For example if your subscriber is called "John", you can send a notification with a title of "Hello John!". Read more about personalisation here
