Instantly Send Universal Modals to Member Devices or via Push Notifications
This endpoint provides the flexibility to deliver tailored push notifications to individual members' devices. It offers customization of titles, text content, and optional images. Additionally, you can embed links to guide users within the app or trigger system actions, even incorporating modals for further engagement.
Important usage note
This endpoint is intended for transactional push notifications only (e.g. individual user actions, order updates, personal alerts). It is not designed or allowed for sending bulk or marketing push notifications.
For mass or marketing campaigns, please use our administration interface or supported integrations such as Bloomreach, which are optimized for large-scale delivery and compliance.
Important Notice on Notification Delivery
Please be aware that the delivery of notifications to member devices is not guaranteed. Notifications can only be sent to members using the mobile app, and their eligibility to receive these notifications depends on several factors:
App Availability: The app must be running in the foreground and have an active internet connection.
Background App Use: If the app is running in the background, the member must have enabled push notifications for the app. Delivery Time: While delivery is typically instantaneous, there may be delays. These delays can be due to the load on our systems or variabilities in the push delivery services provided by Apple or Google.
