Push notifications

Setting up Push notifications

The OneSignal app, key and client identity mapping for push notifications.

Part of Reach Outbound only

Before you start

Your mobile team adds the OneSignal SDK to the app and calls its login with the client id after sign-in. Ship that app update before enabling the channel, since clients on older versions have no push identity yet.

Steps

Each channel installs disabled, so nothing is sent before these steps are done.

Create the OneSignal app

Set up OneSignal for your mobile or web app.

Store the key

Enter the REST API key as the full header value and set the OneSignal app id in the settings.

Log in clients

Make your app log in to OneSignal with each client's id.

Register identities

Register the same id as each client's push identity through the Reach application interface.

Enable the channel

Register the channel as enabled and send a test notification.
