{
  "type": "STANDARD",
  "personalisation": {},
  "title": "Simple notification",
  "message": "Morning to all my minions!",
  "segment": {
    "id": "2af0921a-0190-47ce-99d4-73415b0bc08f"

Android devices accept sending banner images instead of a text based alert. To fire off a notification with a banner image, just add an item in the content field with a presentation of "BANNER". You must have already uploaded a content item. See our uploading content help guide for more
