What is Push Notifications?¶
A push notification is a message that pops up on the user's device. Notifications can be triggered locally by an open application, or they can be "pushed" from the server to the user even when the app is not running. They allow your users to opt-in to timely updates and allow you to effectively re-engage users with customized content.
How it works?¶
- You fill the data for your push notification in the NeuCurrent Platform:
- The Platform process the request and send the info to the platform-level message transports (Firebase Cloud Messaging, Apple Push Notification Server).
- The platform-level message transport attempts to send the message to the devices. If a device is offline, it will attempt to send the after some cooldown till the message would not be received by the user or expring time-to-live parameter.
- User receives the notification in the foreground or background either.
